Key Messages Health and Social Care Policy is shifting investment patterns to earlier interventions Demand for care and support will rise but not matched with increased public funding Personal Budgets will increasingly allow people wider choice – demand for traditional models such as day care expected to decrease Partnership between Adult Social Care and Health will strengthen – ongoing talks in relation to integration Council Spending on Residential and Nursing care will decrease as a proportion of spend on older people Life Expectancy is increasing and with emphasis on prevention - entry into assessed services is likely to be later in people’s lives. Greater emphasis on people maximising their natural support networks 3
4 The Future Provision of Adult Social Care Council is entering a period of significant change based on central government policy and significant reduction in the level of funding available to deliver the range of services it has historically provided. “Care and Support Bill” places a strong focus on people’s well-being and supporting them to live independently for as long as possible The Council has accepted that traditional outdated models of social care cannot be sustained and a revised approach is necessary The Council will continue to promote independence via reablement and recuperation thereby supporting people to remain at home and reduce the dependency on long term care The approach highlighted in the previous Market Position Statement will be continued in ensuring that that people get the right level of intervention, at the right time, and in the right way

Quality The Council places great importance on quality assurance and sees its role increasing over time as the uptake of personal budgets increases. Current and potential providers should consider the following in supporting the delivery of high quality responses: Increased focus on Quality Delivery – including reviewing what people think of the service being delivered Staff Satisfaction – offering a high quality service helps to recruit good staff and improve motivation and staff retention Communication – consider how providers communicate with customers to create a personalised customer focussed experience Involving People – people value input into the design and development of services Continual Improvement – deliver support with an emphasis on continuous improvement and positive outcomes for people 9
