This is likely to increase the capacity in front line operational teams. We expect that by undertaking these reviews a percentage of savings will be unlocked within our funded care and direct payment cohort and that quality and performance will be improved within Adult Social Care
The managed team of experienced social workers will undertake a person-centered approach. The social workers will, throughout their intervention, ensure that the person's voice and wishes are heard and responded to. This approach will ensure that the person is supported to identify and recognize their strengths and abilities and how to use them, with the help of practitioners, to meet their desired outcomes.
