A problem shared: making the best use of resources in adult social care
This report argues that the difficult challenge of supporting people
to live fulfilling independent lives whilst the adult social care system
faces unprecedented financial pressure can only be overcome if local
leaders work in partnership with people, communities and providers to
find a solution. It reviews how budget reductions have been achieved
since 2009 and aims to help political and managerial leadership in
councils tackle the challenge of delivering and developing care
services.
