  • Report to Executive Member for Adult and Community Services Proposals for the Future of Adult Social Care Services
    Report to Executive Member for Adult and Community Services Proposals for the Future of Adult Social Care Services 21st July 2010 1. Introduction 10 2. Headline proposals 3. Detail of proposals 4. Appendices a. Summary timeline b. Summary of risks and controls c. Analysis of likely impact Page 1 of 42 20 1. Introduction This report outlines proposals for the future of adult social care provision in Bolton. Why is this being looked at? Adult social care is the single biggest controllable budget in the Council1, and although (as the diagram below shows2) Bolton performs well in comparative spend, the fact remains that without addressing issues of cost in social care the Council will not meet its overall savings targets. This requirement comes at the same time as we are implementing “Putting People First”, the national agenda to transform adult social care. This approach has been retained by the new Coalition government3. It seeks to extend 30 choice and control particularly through the extension of personal budgets – which further undermines the sustainability of our current service models. The final reason for considering a strategic overhaul of the Council’s approach to social care provision is the underlying overspend. This is caused by levels of demand at current cost exceeding annual budgets to the tune of £1.5+ million a year. What is the current situation? Bolton has been externally assessed4 over many years as having some of the best care and support opportunities in England. It also does so at a competitive level of spend5; Fig. 1 Comparison of spend – nearest neighbours BOLTON 1 Schools spend is greater, but it is ringfenced spending and therefore the Council cannot effect reductions to the same extent 2 Data from www.auditcommission.gov.uk 3 A futher White Paper, based on these principles, is planned for 2011 4 http://www.cqc.org.uk/guidanceforprofessionals/adultsocialcare/inspection.cfm 5 Audit Commission Value for Money profiles (pub.
