Personalisation – What is it ?

• Choice and Control – assessment, funding, services, evaluation

• Focus on everyone not just the few

• Focus on early intervention / prevention rather than crisis management

• Focus on quality of life and personal outcomes not needs and disabilities

• Self directed support for eligible people and their personal budgets, with a support / brokerage rather than assessment / gate keeping role for statutory agencies

• Information, advice and advocacy key

• More efficient use of available money building on personal, family, friends, and community resources and networks

Personalisation – Why ?

Demographics – by 2026 the population of over 65s will increase by 56% from 96,500 to 151,000

Finances - Wanless Review identified that the total spend on social care for older people would need to increase from £10.1bn in 2002 to £24bn by 2026

Eligibility - FACS criteria focuses on critical and substantial with little funding for prevention which can mean people become more dependent for longer (Transforming Social Care)

Expectations – are growing and people don’t want the menu of services provided by Social Care (Putting People First)

Citizenship – need to shift control and decision making power from the state to the citizen for social care
