Service users get together with a social care academic and a leader in the home care sector to discuss how excellence can be achieved in domiciliary care. We see examples of excellence in support offered to older people, people with learning disabilities and people with physical disabilities in their own homes. Much of the focus is on the relationship between staff members and the people they support because getting that right is fundamental to excellent care. This film has now been revised and is available under the new title 'Quality in social care: achieving excellence in home care'.

In this film we see several examples of excellence in supported living settings. The film shows people with learning disabilities and mental health problems finding employment, developing skills, and becoming more independent, and looks at the role of social care staff in supporting people to improve their lives. The examples are analysed by a panel of service users and social care academics and they discuss how the services demonstrate concepts of excellence in social care in their day-to-day work. This film has been revised and is now available under the title 'Quality in social care: achieving excellence in supported living services'.
