Decision:
Resolved:
1) That the Board note and endorse the Adult Social Care Local Account 2017
2) That the Board use the information contained within the Local Account to support future decision making
Minutes:
52.1 Officers introduced the Adult Social Care Local Account 2017. The report included key developments in 2016/17 and outlined future plans in a ‘we have/ we will’ format incorporating feedback from partner organisations across the city and patients. The report would be distributing to partners, available online, in libraries and potentially in GP surgeries. An easy to read version would also be produced by the end of March 2018.
52.2 Councillor Barford stated that the purpose of the report was not for the council to publicise it achievements but to measure how much progress has been made against targets set in 2016. The report sought to recognise where targets had not been reached and to shape priorities going forward. Future reports would include contributions from Public Health and the CCG as well as Adult Social Care.
52.3 Councillor Page stated that he was concerned that only 43% of Adult Social Care users had received as much contact as they would like. There were a large number of frail older people who were vulnerable to isolation and loneliness.
52.4 The Acting Director of Public Health responded that Issues of loneliness and engaging hard to reach older people fell within the Ageing Well element of the Caring Together plan and the Board was due to consider a report on this in the coming months.
52.5 Resolved:
1) That the Board note and endorse the Adult Social Care Local Account 2017
2) That the Board use the information contained within the Local Account to support future decision making
