1. The Torbay Model – meeting people’s needs and expectations Dr Carol Tozer People Commissioner

2. Looking at tomorrow and over the horizon Number of people aged over 85 will double by 2026 to about 2 million: number of people over 100 will have quadrupled Currently – about 4 people under 65 for every person; by 2029 this will be 3 people Healthy life expectancy is falling behind life expectancy – people are spending longer time living with conditions that seriously affect their quality of life (effects of stroke; diabetes; dementia etc)

3. And in Torbay….. 1990 – 36,800 people aged over 60 1990 – 3,700 people over 85 2010 – 42,500 people aged over 60 2010 – 5,400 people aged over 85 2030 – 61,200 people aged over 60 2030 – 10,100 people aged over 85

4. Evidence that people’s needs are being met: CSCI 2008 reported: 25% people seeking help fell outside Councils’ eligibility criteria Of those not receiving help: 35% people said they managed without; 32% got help from family members; 23% made private arrangements; 10% were helped by a voluntary organisation 1:5 people identified themselves as carers – and 1:8 of those who could benefit were not offered an assessment of their needs

5. Much is changing The white paper (finally) published 30 March 2010 establishing proposal for National Care Service Further evidence of worsening pressures on the social care system – tighter eligibility criteria Growing impact of recession on needs and resources – soaring levels of public debt, inevitably affecting views about affordability and sustainability Putting People First – signalling new delivery model based on personalisation New policy initiatives in relation to dementia, carers and learning disability Forthcoming election

6. Carers at the Heart of 21 st century Families and Communities Cross cutting government strategy sets out actions for next 10 years covering breaks, income, information and advice, the workplace, training for the workforce, access to employment, emotional support, the health of carers and the specific needs of young carers (DH 2008)

7. Valuing People Now 3 year cross cutting strategy for people with learning disabilities – stressing independence, rights and choice. Predicts that numbers of people using services is due to increase by more than 50% to 223,000 by 2018

8. Living well with dementia: a national dementia strategy Recognises that people with dementia will double over next 30 years to 1.4 million and that costs will treble to more than £90 billions per annum (DH 2009) Early identification, development of specialist skills and new models of service delivery at the heart of the strategy

9. The white paper sets out Principles of: affordability; fairness; consistency; and self determination Proposals for a National Care Service Free care and support for those with the greatest needs BUT – creates (another) Commission to develop the contribution and funding proposals – and new system will not start until after the next Comprehensive Spending Review period

14. The Torbay Model From: “Right care, right time, right place” To: “Right advice and information, right person, right money”. Commissioning and brokerage activities, development of social capital and audit – placed centre stage

15. The Torbay Model means The development of third sector organisations and neighbourhood provision is vital The organisational divisions between adult social care and the NHS, housing, access to benefits, access to employment support must be overcome And providers must diversify and adapt to the new marketplace.

16. Moving forward - together Torbay people are most likely to experience the best outcomes if providers and commissioners work together to establish the ingredients, recipe and menu of transformation locally Together, we must maintain and develop new local models of best practice Together, we must establish clear protocols and ascertain a shared understanding of roles and responsibilities of all those involved in end of life care
