  • Care Act – Care and support planning
    1 hour 30 minutes
    Course description
    The Care Act 2016 updates the Care Act 2014, which was introduced to ensure a person-centred approach to care planning as a legal requirement for local authorities. An awareness of the principles of the Care Act is crucial for you if you’re working in any role in health and social care. As we live longer, care is becoming a greater burden on carers and professional providers. To lighten the load and provide better, more tailored care at the same time, the idea of person-centred care has become key to care and support planning.

It enables local authorities to decide whether or not to charge a person for their care and support needs or for a carer’s support needs. The new Care Act assessment framework has been designed to make charging fairer and more clearly understood by everyone. Understanding it properly is essential if you work with people in need, whether in the public, private or charity sectors.

    Information is everything.

The right information and advice increases the ability to exercise choice and control. It is therefore a vital component in preventing or delaying the need for care and support which can give people a better quality of life for longer; and it’s crucial in delivering a duty of care in health and social care when people need it.
