Government policy: Individualised and person centred Local Outcome focused Value for money Not institutional Community based Open Winterbourne View: Not individualised or person centred Out of area No outcomes Generating profits for private company shareholders (£3500 per week) Institutional Industrial estate Closed The gap between policy & practice

  4. Why? • Local, person centred support is not developed • Lack of long term planning & strategic commissioning- including housing • Places purchased ad hoc, in crisis • CQC register these services • Once people go in it is hard for them to move on – lack of proper reviews & monitoring outcomes • People with learning disabilities & family carers are disempowered • Safeguarding is not working • Incentive for private providers is profit!

  5. What needs to change? • Focus on prevention & local service development • Commissioning (it is not purchasing!) • Registration & Monitoring • Data collection that is useful • Clearer lines of ACCOUNTABILITY Collective responsibility what will YOU do about it

  6. What next? Action plan -short, medium and long term • Leadership investment at national and local level • Co-production People with learning disabilities & families engaged and supported at every level in co-production
