Care Learning wishes to disseminate information and resources on this work-stream.  In some cases Care Learning may be doing some direct work and support on this workstream and this will be clearly indicated.  In most cases we will be providing information, news and resources that are available from other organisations.

Getting Personal: measuring providers' progress towards personalisation PDF Print E-mail

SCIE have worked with the Voluntary Organisations Disability Group (VODG) to develop a tool to help you assess how ready you are to deliver personalised care services. It will be of particular use to social care providers.

This is the first stage of the development. The second stage, which will be launched in December 2010, will direct you to resources that will help you to make improvements.

The tool is straightforward to use. It will take you through a series of questions under four section headings: Person, Team, Organisation and Market.
