Implementing Personalised Care

Individual budgets, self-directed support, direct payments and in control

Introduction

Personalisation is set to be the most significant reform in social care for
60 years.
Personalising services in adult care will offer choice and control to service users through individual budgets but there will also be many challenges in service provision to overcome. How will the role of practitioners be affected? How will personalised care be implemented?
Attend this Community Care conference to have these questions answered and understand what your role will be in driving the agenda forward. Our previous personalised care conference was a sell out. If you missed out last time then this is your opportunity to attend this informative day and find out how you can put personalised care into practice. Read more >>
