Towards excellence in adult social careMany local authorities are now heavily focussed on adult social care, the costs of which are increasing as people live longer in general, but everyone involved is faced with improving services with less available funds. Financial cuts in the public sector mean that sector-led improvement and peer review could be key to establishing decent social care frameworks – but how does one go about it? Alongside the
local adult social care profile that can help you identify groups in need, the LGA has recently published its social care priorities
report. It notes that a lot of the transformation of adult social care in recent years can be attributed to the increased personalisation of services. If you've used the social care profile or any other LG Inform Plus report to help improve adult social care in your area, please let us know as we'd love to feature your story.
