  1. Peta Smith – Commissioning Manager Children’s and Adult’s Services Focussing on Personal Budgets

  2. What’s new • Children and Families Act • Care Act • Winterbourne View response • Personal Health Budgets • Integrated Personal Commissioning • Increased take up of Direct Payments

  3. Children and Families Bill - SEND • Integrated assessments (education, health and social care – EHC) and integrated commissioning (health and local authority) • Duty to publish a Local Offer • Right to request a Personal Budget

  4. Local Offer – what is it • Purpose of the local offer is to enable parents and young people to see more clearly what services are available in their area and how to access them. • Covers provision for 0-25 years, across education, health and social care • Being developed in partnership with parents and young people in the borough

  5. Local Offer - Impact • Opportunity to promote your service (0-25 & parents?) • Opportunity to understand what other organisations there are and where there are gaps in service provision • Will be promoted by the council and partners as the “go to place” for information so very important you are on there • Opportunity to reach more people We will be circulating information on how to get your organisation on the Southwark offer via CAS later this month.

  6. Care Act • Continued focus and momentum for PBs • We will have more contact with self funders • Big focus on information and advice

  7. Winterbourne View Response • Target of over 100 people to look to move back to the borough • People with very complex needs and behaviours that challenge services • Want to find innovative ways to support them in the community • Individual support – care; leisure; learning & employment; meaningful activity

  8. Personal Health Budgets • Currently – have a right to request if you have a continuing healthcare need • From April2015 – if you have a long term condition • Small changes nationally to date

  9. Integrated Personal Commissioning • New announcement • Bringing Health and Social Care PB into an integrated budget and spending to meet shared outcomes • Blurs the lines • Pilots April 2015

  10. More people on Direct Payments • Increasing month by month • 377 and counting!

  11. Personal Budgets – Possible Impacts 1 • Opportunityto increase business • Good service, but limited to volume of work commissioned • Not commissioned by the council, so don’t get referrals • Opportunity to provide support in new and different ways • Respond to requests from people who use your service • Not defined by the Council – by the personal budget holder • Opportunity to focus on individual outcomes • Increased focus on quality and customer satisfaction

  12. Personal Budgets – Possible Impacts 2 • Changes to core funding • Develop new costing models – cost per person; per session; per week etc • New income streams – how to manage • More diverse market – more individual focussed; micro-providers?

  13. Personal Budgets – Planning • What do your service users want? • What parts of your services can you make more individualised (and what can’t you)? • Who are your competitors? And who are your collaborators? • The market of organisations offering services is increasing • Think about what makes you unique • Promote your services • Respond to what people say they want/ need • Understand the costs of your service and how you can be competitive • Make sure you are utilising the Local Offer and other information directories
