As emphasised in the key objectives of the Commissioning Strategy. The Council is committed to introducing an ethical flexible procurement system (FPS) for support at home which includes; continuous quality development, a closer alignment of support at home with locality teams and a greater emphasis on wellbeing and opportunities for more flexible support packages. The FPS will enhance person centred care in which more people are enabled to seek wider circles of support (reducing long term dependence) but also more people are attracted to work the care profession (helping to increase supply).
