Description
With the Self-Directed Support Bill due to be launched by the Scottish Parliament this year, it is clear that implementing this approach to delivering care is a priority across Scotland.
Capita’s National Self-Directed Support Scotland Conference brings together the key policy makers setting this agenda, along with the organizations’ and individuals that are empowering people to direct their own care.
As the personalisation agenda shifts the emphasisof support from the service to the service-user, an adaptable and responsive approach is required to deal with changes to funding, organisational structure and service delivery.
Our expert speakers, including two Self-Directed Support Pilot Councils, will give you up to date feedback on the challenges and approaches that have arisen so far.
This conference is timed to address the key issues involved in the implementation of Self-Directed Support including:
- Effective working across partner agencies including integrating health, housing and social care provision
- How to establish and embed an outcomes-focused approach
- Utilising the expertise of the third sector in the provision of social care
- Take this opportunity to address the important challenges faced in delivering Self-Directed Support and enhance your own strategy and delivery of this crucial national agenda.
