Issue - decisions

“We want to ensure that Staffordshire is a place where people are healthy, are supported in their community and live as independently as possible for as long as possible.

There are many different laws about care and support at the moment, so it’s difficult for people to know what information and advice they have access to, and what care and support they can access in the future.

The Care Act is a huge opportunity for us to help ensure that people have better access, information and clarity on the right support when they need it and will complement the huge amount of work we are already doing to focus on prevention and early intervention to promote wellbeing for all our residents.”

Alan White, Cabinet Member for Health, Care and Wellbeing.
