Survey results contd.... Services people told us they would benefit from in managing their Direct Payment that were not currently provided. . Support with recruitment of PA’s . Ongoing support and advice with being an employer . Dealing with the payroll companies directly . Access to training for their PA’s . Someone to manage the DP on their behalf . Clear information on what people can use their direct payment to purchase

What we have learnt Absence of a service to support individuals who require 3rd party money management . This has impacted on people’s decision to take up the option of a DP Development of the PA market in LBH is required to establish a supply or appropriately skilled workers SU’s require more ongoing support with managing their DP than originally anticipated Administration has been minimised with pre-paid card, but can still be off putting for some residents Continued education/promotion of Direct Payments is required for residents and staff to de-mystify the system and promote benefits of choice and control
