In order to assess where strategic investments will be best directed the Adult Improvement Board, and the Directors of Adult Social Services (ADASS SW) are seeking to commission an Evidence Base analysis of factors influencing and impacting on the region and in particular the ability of adult social services to ensure the right care and support is available. This will consider a review that was produced in January 2012 that examined a number of similar areas. In the light of particular challenges facing local government, the economy (including seasonal pressures), rurality, demographics, housing, tourism and from health, the review will consider: •how councils are tackling new models of care, increase in complexity and demand, which effect the future funding of adult social care and the impact of the change over the last 5 years •if the unique and combined factors across the Southwest compared to other parts of England might give insight into changes in approach, by Councils, to social care. Our aim is to improve our understanding of the economy and market with a more detailed line of sight on managing risk and improving quality. Overall, the strategic questions this work will need to answer are: •what are the strategic differences between the Southwest and other regions in England. •to what extent are the Southwest demographics, economy and local decisions impacting on Adult Social Services’ ability to support those who draw on care and support, including helping ageing citizens to stay independent; •what are the anticipated future pressures expected from national policy changes to the economy and households and what factors should be considered to meet the emerging pressures; and •where, as a region, are we better collectively focusing our efforts to meet the changing demand and increasing financial pressures whilst improving the quality of services available. The final report will be used to enhance understanding of the nature and evolution of social care in the Southwest. To provide new insight into possible solutions to address or overcome barriers to the quantity and quality of services. To support consensus building regionally and nationally for investing in the region’s social care.
