What does it all mean
for social care practice?
Martin Routledge June 2013
Looking forward in social
care:
• Implementation in context of much reduced £ and wider
reforms
• Continuing cultural and practical challenges – process,
outcomes
• Integration, Health and Well-Being Boards – personalisation
part of the solution?
• Making it work for all (all groups, all circumstances)
• Supporting a new workforce and new ways of working
• Beyond personal budgets – provider and market
development, social capital, information, advice and advocacy
• Co-production - power of people using public services?
Thoughts from today
• Strong and relevant set of research projects
• Is anybody listening? - How to make sure the
policy and delivery implications are incorporated
into drivers for action and change
• Research on how deliver well and how do to this in
context is important – some good examples today
• Important that research looks beyond personal
budgets - “what helps deliver them well to all?”
“what needs to happen as well?”
• Attention to those responsible for national and local delivery
at least as important as influencing policy at this stage
• Need to effectively target and support organisations of
commissioners, providers, professionals, educators – AND
organisations of people using social care and family carer
groups
• Need to support policy at key points – e.g. from the autumn
regulations and guidance for Care Bill
• SSCR well placed to facilitate a strategic approach? Key link
