Description

Care at Home services provide personal care, including social and emotional support to enable people to continue or resume residing in their own home. The purpose of the service is to ensure quality of life for the individual, while enabling them to retain independence, Successful delivery of the service involves putting the person at the center of the decisions about the way they live and the support they want to receive. The strategic aim of shifting the balance of care and ‘Home First’ is highly dependent on delivering the right care at the right time in the right place. Care at Home services are particularly important to ensuring that more care and support is delivered at home or closer to home rather than in hospitals or other clinical settings. The service landscape is complex and must also support the key principles associated with the Self-Direct Support legislation ensuring that service users and carers have choice and control over how their care is delivered.
