  1. What the Ras? – December 2011

  2. Clare in the community – 7th December 2011

  3. =

  4. To simplify: • Work out how much money you are going to allocate, including what is needed for projected changes in demand • Devise a simple way to understand/assess ‘need’ and available resources • Allocate according to these needs and circumstances What can we learn so far?

  5. The jigsaw of change

  6. Why a new resource allocation system?

  7. From this………………. To this………………….

  8. £ for services, or for people

  9. self-directed support

  10. What is a RAS? A Resource Allocation System is simply a process to decide how much money a person (with eligible social care support needs) is entitled to (from local government) for them to use to plan to stay healthy and safe and live the life the want

  11. What is a RAS? - a way to find out the sort of money I can get, so I can plan how best to spend it…. - an amount I can use to develop a plan and make choices taking into account all the resources available to me…. - a means to an end

  12. What is a RAS not? • it’s not rocket science….. • it’s not science…… • It’s not…… • It’s…….

  13. Thinking about resource allocation • Any RAS is a tool, it depends how you use it

  14. RAS-madness • 1996 - RAS = professional judgement of ‘sufficiency’ • 2003 - RAS = one page guide to practitioners on an indicative budget • 2006 - RAS = 10 page questionnaire - but easy questions • 2011 - RAS = 40 page questionnaire and increasing ambiguity we are going down a slippery slope to ‘phoney rationality’ and unfairness

  15. The six pillars of RASdom: • Fair • Equitable • Transparent • Sufficient Reasonable Sustainable A common resource allocation framework?

  16. personalisation did not work • because of markets • independent brokers (or other ‘wonder workers’) • clever Resource Allocation Systems • following the 7 steps of self-directed support • having an individual budget Some systems can help - but they also present grave danger:Means ≠ Ends

  17. control is not real if • you chop out creative support from my plan - even when I’m within budget! • you tell me it’s too difficult & offer to plan for me • you don’t give me enough support • you create burdensome rules, undue monitoring or just make everything too vague • you confuse needs, outcomes and support

  18. Simplification and trust • Razzle-dazzle = the RAS sounds ‘technical’ • More rules = more control over social workers • Panels and RAS working groups = control drifts upwards • Months and years to calculate = confusion and disempowerment • Lots of process ≠ guarantee of sufficiency

  19. What’s all this about? Independent Living – the goal Self-directed support – the route Individual budgets – the vehicle

  20. understanding SDS: real wealth mad-RAS: empowering teams, problems sad social workers: happy & empowered expensive system: community connections mistrust with providers: allies >>>bureaucracy: creative citizens Hazards for Scotland...

  21. How do we ensure any system includes these six pillars in a framework Fair Equitable Transparent Sufficient Reasonable Sustainable
