Three-quarters of people aged 65 will need care and support in their later years
Older people are the core user of acute
hospital care - 60% of admissions, 65%
of bed days and 70% of emergency
readmissions.
72% of recipients of social care services
are older people, accounting for 56% of
expenditure on adult social care.

Context for change: demands on the system
The Care Act: reforming care and support

Councils are facing significant and increasing demand and financial pressure.
Adult social care spending has fallen by c8.5%
in real terms from 2011/12 to end of 2013/14
(2013/14 prices)
• Since 2011/12 central revenue support for councils has
reduced by c10% each year (c39% by end of 2014/15).
This is equivalent to a reduction in spending power of
c4-5%.
• Impact varies locally – some councils have seen
spending power reduce by c7% each year.
• Many councils have still given relative protection to ASC
compared to some other services.
• Overall councils have reduced spending on ASC by
c8.5% in real terms over three years to end 2013/14,
consistent with 3% national efficiency assumption.
• User numbers have also reduced significantly over the
SR period, particularly for +65s:
– 19% fewer over-65s receiving community care
– 2% fewer over-65s receiving residential/nursing care
• Reported outcomes and satisfaction have remained
stable, but data limited to people receiving care.
Overall councils have done very well in delivering savings whilst maintaining outcomes and satisfaction
levels. However, picture varies locally and councils have relied on significant support from the NHS.

Vision for Adult Social Care document and White Paper.
Consultation on
draft regulations
and guidance
______________
Jun - Aug 2014
The Care Act: reforming care and support
8
• Promote people’s wellbeing
• Enable people to prevent and postpone the need
for care and support
• Put people in control of their lives so they can
pursue opportunities to realise their potential
The care and support White Paper was published in
July 2012 and set out the Government’s vision for the
future system.
If adult care and support in England is going to respond
to challenges it must help people to stay well and
independent:
The Care Act 2014 underpins and implements this
vision.
Caring for our Future
The Care Act: reforming care and support
9
The Act is built around people, it:
• ensures that people’s well-being, and the outcomes which matter to them, will be at
the heart of every decision that is made;
• puts carers on the same footing as those they care for;
• creates a new focus on preventing and delaying needs for care and support, rather
than only intervening at crisis point, and building on the strengths in the community;
• embeds rights to choice, through care plans and personal budgets, and ensuring a
range of high quality services are available locally.
The Act makes care and support clearer and fairer, it:
• extends financial support to those who need it most, and protects everyone from
catastrophic care costs though a cap on the care costs that people will incur.
• will ensure that people do not have to sell their homes in their lifetime to pay for
residential care, by providing for a new deferred payments scheme;
• provides for a single national threshold for eligibility to care and support;
• supports people with information, advice and advocacy to understand their rights
and responsibilities, access care when they need it, and plan for their future needs;
• gives new guarantees to ensure continuity of care when people move between areas,
to remove the fear that people will be left without the care they need;
• includes new protections to ensure that no one goes without care if their provider
fails, regardless of who pays for their care.
What does the Care Act do?

A consultation on draft regulations
and guidance for part one of the
Care Act 2014
11
This consultation
The primary legislation - the Care Act 2014 sets
the legal duties and powers
We are now consulting on secondary legislation
- the regulations. The scope of regulations is set
by the Care Act.
We are also consulting on the statutory
guidance on how to meet legal obligations in
the Bill. This sets out the expectations of local
authorities when exercising their functions
We are also developing practice guidance,
toolkits and other products which help
support implementation.
The Care Act: reforming care and support
12
A quick note on our approach
• We haven’t produced these drafts on our own! They were
developed with a great deal of collaboration and stakeholder
engagement – just like the Act itself.
• Within the guidance we’ve used examples and case studies to
illustrate the guidance. Tell us if you think they’re helpful or if you
have better examples.
• We have tried to capture cross cutting issues throughout the
guidance - have we succeeded?

The Care Act: reforming care and support
Implementation of Care and Support
Reform
Our approach – leadership & partnership
• Care and Support Reform Board oversees
implementation and brings together those with specific
implementation responsibility or system leadership role
• Supported by the unprecedented partnership between
DH, ADASS and LGA
• Partnership ensures shared ownership and of a
programme management approach to implementation
• Joint programme management office supports Board
oversee planning for implementation and assurance
Our approach – co-production
• National and local co-production and engagement
across the care sector will remain central to delivery
• Engagement with sector groups such as Think TLAP,
TEASC, and provider / user groups essential for
ongoing delivery
• Build new relationships with ADASS Policy Leads and
Regional Leads and others to complement the
partnership
Headlines from 1st
readiness stocktake –
National picture
• Almost all councils have a plan/programme
• Around 9/10 said they were fairly or very confident that they
will be able to deliver
• Roughly 3/4 have started to estimate the number of requests
for carers’ assessments, and most of those yet to complete
this expect to have done so by January 2015
• Roughly 3/4 have started to estimate the likely cost of
implementing the Care Act in 2015/16, and most of those yet
to start work on this expect to have done so by January 2015
Our approach – implementation support
• Co-produce a package of support to enable local authorities
to prepare, plan and deliver the Care Act
• Focusing resource on areas of highest risk / impact where
clear national role and no other investment
– Initial priorities identified as: Workforce; Communications;
Informatics; Understanding implementation costs
• Stocktake survey of DASSs in every council which closed 21
May key evidence to inform our decisions
• Supporting regional activity which we see as a critical enabler
to delivery of the reforms
Our approach – communication
• Focus on implementation communications to share
information and engage those responsible for delivery
– Regional activity is key to ensuring two-way engagement
• Delivery of a public awareness campaign to increase
understanding of the reforms, how to access them and
encourage behaviour change
– Phase 1 for people receiving care or about to (late 2014 - Apr 2016)
– “Locally driven with national support” – building on resources that can
be adapted and used locally
Purpose of today
• Direct conversations between local authorities,
voluntary and private sector and DH to seek to views
on how to improve the draft regulations and
guidance
• Discussion about some of the more difficult
implementation issues, with national colleagues and
each other
Our plea
• We want to hear what you are doing, the challenges
you are facing, and how you are overcoming them
• We want to capture and share your learning and
tools so others can benefit
So that together we can…
…support each other to implement these reforms
…grasp this opportunity to shape care and support
delivery for the next 30+ years!
What happens next?
•Finalise 2015/16 regulations and guidanceOctober 2014
•Ongoing work to develop practice guides, Over summer/
toolkits and implementation support autumn
2014
•Separate consultation later this year on those
elements of the Act that come into force in Late 2014
April 2016 (e.g. funding reform).
•New statute comes into force April 2015
•Funding reforms come into effect April 2016

  • 2. 2 1. Context for the Care and Support Reforms • History of Care and Support and reform timeline • Vision for care and support 2. A consultation on draft regulations and guidance for part one of the Care Act 2014 • About the consultation • Overview of the Care Act 2. Implementation of Care and Support Reform • Our approach to implementation • National headlines from stocktake survey and our response • Purpose of today and our plea • Key milestones and next steps Contents The Care Act: reforming care and support
  • 3. 3 Context for the Care and Support Reforms
  • 4. 4 National Assistance Act 1948: established the welfare state and abolished the Poor Laws 1948 1960… 1970… Chronically Sick and Disabled Persons Act 1970: reforms to key entitlements to community services A brief history of care and support NHS and Community Care Act 1990: first major set of reforms, including first right to assessments and start of commissioner/ provider split. 1980… 1990… 2000… 2010… Carers (Recognition and Services) Act 1995: the first Act to recognise carers Community Care (Direct Payments) Act 1996: new powers to make direct payments Carers and Disabled Children Act 2000: extending direct payments to carers Health and Social Care Act 2001: updates on direct payments Social care law and policy has evolved over more than 65 years, incorporating around 30 Acts of Parliament, but reform has usually been piecemeal. The Care Act: reforming care and support
  • 5. 5 48 per cent of men and 51 per cent of women will need domiciliary care only 33 per cent of men and 15 per cent of women will never need formal care 19 per cent of men and 34 per cent of women will need residential care Three-quarters of people aged 65 will need care and support in their later years Older people are the core user of acute hospital care - 60% of admissions, 65% of bed days and 70% of emergency readmissions. 72% of recipients of social care services are older people, accounting for 56% of expenditure on adult social care. Supported Supported …and around 6 million people caring for a friend or family member. …around 400,000 people in residential care, 56% of whom are state-supported …around 1.1 million people receiving care at home, 80% of whom are state- supported …1.5 million people employed in the care and support workforce Care and support affects a large number of people In England there are… Context for change: demands on the system The Care Act: reforming care and support
  • 6. 6 Councils are facing significant and increasing demand and financial pressure. Adult social care spending has fallen by c8.5% in real terms from 2011/12 to end of 2013/14 (2013/14 prices) • Since 2011/12 central revenue support for councils has reduced by c10% each year (c39% by end of 2014/15). This is equivalent to a reduction in spending power of c4-5%. • Impact varies locally – some councils have seen spending power reduce by c7% each year. • Many councils have still given relative protection to ASC compared to some other services. • Overall councils have reduced spending on ASC by c8.5% in real terms over three years to end 2013/14, consistent with 3% national efficiency assumption. • User numbers have also reduced significantly over the SR period, particularly for +65s: – 19% fewer over-65s receiving community care – 2% fewer over-65s receiving residential/nursing care • Reported outcomes and satisfaction have remained stable, but data limited to people receiving care. Overall councils have done very well in delivering savings whilst maintaining outcomes and satisfaction levels. However, picture varies locally and councils have relied on significant support from the NHS. Context for change: financial pressures The Care Act: reforming care and support
  • 7. 7 Vision for Adult Social Care ___________ Nov 2010 Law Commission Report __________ May 2011 Dilnot Commission Report __________ July 2011 Caring for our future engagement _____________ Sept - Dec 2011 • Caring for our Future White Paper • Draft Care and Support Bill • Progress report on funding ______________ July 2012 Engagement and pre-legislative scrutiny on draft Bill ________________ Jul 2012 – Jan 2013 Care Act in Parliament __________ May 2013 – May 2014 Announcement on funding reform ______________ Feb 2013 Implementation _____________ April 2015 – April 2016 The reform timeline The Care Act is the latest step in the timeline for reform, and builds the Government’s Vision for Adult Social Care document and White Paper. Consultation on draft regulations and guidance ______________ Jun - Aug 2014 The Care Act: reforming care and support
  • 8. 8 • Promote people’s wellbeing • Enable people to prevent and postpone the need for care and support • Put people in control of their lives so they can pursue opportunities to realise their potential The care and support White Paper was published in July 2012 and set out the Government’s vision for the future system. If adult care and support in England is going to respond to challenges it must help people to stay well and independent: The Care Act 2014 underpins and implements this vision. Caring for our Future The Care Act: reforming care and support
  • 9. 9 The Act is built around people, it: • ensures that people’s well-being, and the outcomes which matter to them, will be at the heart of every decision that is made; • puts carers on the same footing as those they care for; • creates a new focus on preventing and delaying needs for care and support, rather than only intervening at crisis point, and building on the strengths in the community; • embeds rights to choice, through care plans and personal budgets, and ensuring a range of high quality services are available locally. The Act makes care and support clearer and fairer, it: • extends financial support to those who need it most, and protects everyone from catastrophic care costs though a cap on the care costs that people will incur. • will ensure that people do not have to sell their homes in their lifetime to pay for residential care, by providing for a new deferred payments scheme; • provides for a single national threshold for eligibility to care and support; • supports people with information, advice and advocacy to understand their rights and responsibilities, access care when they need it, and plan for their future needs; • gives new guarantees to ensure continuity of care when people move between areas, to remove the fear that people will be left without the care they need; • includes new protections to ensure that no one goes without care if their provider fails, regardless of who pays for their care. What does the Care Act do? The Care Act: reforming care and support
  • 10. 10 A consultation on draft regulations and guidance for part one of the Care Act 2014
  • 11. 11 This consultation The primary legislation - the Care Act 2014 sets the legal duties and powers We are now consulting on secondary legislation - the regulations. The scope of regulations is set by the Care Act. We are also consulting on the statutory guidance on how to meet legal obligations in the Bill. This sets out the expectations of local authorities when exercising their functions We are also developing practice guidance, toolkits and other products which help support implementation. The Care Act: reforming care and support
  • 12. 12 A quick note on our approach • We haven’t produced these drafts on our own! They were developed with a great deal of collaboration and stakeholder engagement – just like the Act itself. • Within the guidance we’ve used examples and case studies to illustrate the guidance. Tell us if you think they’re helpful or if you have better examples. • We have tried to capture cross cutting issues throughout the guidance - have we succeeded?

  • 27. Implementation of Care and Support Reform
  • 28. Our approach – leadership & partnership • Care and Support Reform Board oversees implementation and brings together those with specific implementation responsibility or system leadership role • Supported by the unprecedented partnership between DH, ADASS and LGA • Partnership ensures shared ownership and of a programme management approach to implementation • Joint programme management office supports Board oversee planning for implementation and assurance
  • 29. Our approach – co-production • National and local co-production and engagement across the care sector will remain central to delivery • Engagement with sector groups such as Think TLAP, TEASC, and provider / user groups essential for ongoing delivery • Build new relationships with ADASS Policy Leads and Regional Leads and others to complement the partnership
  • 30. Headlines from 1st readiness stocktake – National picture • Almost all councils have a plan/programme • Around 9/10 said they were fairly or very confident that they will be able to deliver • Roughly 3/4 have started to estimate the number of requests for carers’ assessments, and most of those yet to complete this expect to have done so by January 2015 • Roughly 3/4 have started to estimate the likely cost of implementing the Care Act in 2015/16, and most of those yet to start work on this expect to have done so by January 2015
  • 31. Our approach – implementation support • Co-produce a package of support to enable local authorities to prepare, plan and deliver the Care Act • Focusing resource on areas of highest risk / impact where clear national role and no other investment – Initial priorities identified as: Workforce; Communications; Informatics; Understanding implementation costs • Stocktake survey of DASSs in every council which closed 21 May key evidence to inform our decisions • Supporting regional activity which we see as a critical enabler to delivery of the reforms
  • 32. Our approach – communication • Focus on implementation communications to share information and engage those responsible for delivery – Regional activity is key to ensuring two-way engagement • Delivery of a public awareness campaign to increase understanding of the reforms, how to access them and encourage behaviour change – Phase 1 for people receiving care or about to (late 2014 - Apr 2016) – “Locally driven with national support” – building on resources that can be adapted and used locally
  • 33. Purpose of today • Direct conversations between local authorities, voluntary and private sector and DH to seek to views on how to improve the draft regulations and guidance • Discussion about some of the more difficult implementation issues, with national colleagues and each other

Editor's Notes

  1. Compared with today, we expect 600,000 more older people to have potential care needs in the next 20 years. The number of people with dementia will double to 1.4 million by 2030 The number of people with three or more long term conditions is set to increase from 1.9 million in 2008 to 2.9 million in 2018. The number of adults with learning disabilities who require some form of support will increase between 3.2% and 7.9% per year until 2026.
  2. To cover: The role of the Programme Management Office Context for the discussion today What the stocktake is telling us so far What the plans are for tools and support What support there will be for comms – a hot topic in discussion among local authorities A thanks to the region for organising
  3. Ian Turner from the Registered Nursing Homes Association has been seconded to the team on behalf of care providers.
  4. NB don’t need to run through every point on the following two slides but useful for people to have in their packs
  5. Effective communications to leaders and partners responsible for delivery and to users and carers on the changes coming will be key The types of support you might expect: A care costs calculator “what it means” leaflets Newspaper, poster & radio resources to be adapted locally Case studies for briefing local press
  6. Thank you to all involved in setting up today’s event and to participants for willingness to give time to this important agenda
