Reports on the results of a telephone survey of reablement services in Scottish local authorities which was carried out in early 2012 and the findings from three seminar discussions on the subject of performance measurement in reablement. The response rate to the survey was 97 per cent, with 31 out of the 32 authorities/partnerships taking part. Issues covered in the survey included: the status and type of the service, staffing levels and job roles involved in staffing the service and key characteristics of the service. The survey also gathered information on the impact of re-ablement services in terms of shift in spending; commissioning and procurement; integrated working with the NHS; and the introduction of telecare, telehealth and equipment. The survey confirms that re-ablement activity has now become the norm in the majority of Scottish local authorities. (Edited publisher abstract)
