Decision details
Residential care and day care for older people
Decision Maker: Cabinet
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Purpose:
To ensure the sustainability of adult social
care services now and in the future, approval will be sought to
publicly consult on a redesign of the services provided by the
council through the 16 council-owned and managed residential care
homes and ten building-based day care centres for older
people.
The proposed consultation would seek views on future delivery
models that would ensure that care services focus on support for
older people to retain or regain their independence, to continue to
live in their own homes and interact in their own communities, and
when residential care is needed, a choice of quality options are
available.
Decision:
RESOLVED to:
1) Approve the programme of formal public consultation for a period of 12 weeks on the two proposed options concerning the future of the eleven residential homes and integrated day opportunities for older people, and all of the non-integrated day opportunities for older people; and
2) Receive a further report following the conclusion of the consultation process, including an Equality Impact Analysis.
