This tool identifies statistical neighbours – or similar areas – for adult social care delivery for older people and working age adults with learning disabilities. These are the two largest groups who receive adult social care. The comparable indicators include spending per head, quality of services and access to services. The tool provides a basis for comparing spending and outcomes between councils and helps directors of adult social services and local authority financial leads to find new opportunities for improving adult social care efficiency. It is for use by councils to assess their own performance, and to identify where different approaches in comparable local authorities may provide examples to learn from. It is not meant to be used to make judgements about the relative performance of councils in delivering adult social care services, nor can it provide answers as to what the ‘correct’ price is for care.

While broad in scope, these standards acknowledge the unique and complex needs of individuals, and the additional specific knowledge, and skills required in order to deliver a service that is tailored to the needs of each person. With the emphasis on caring for people with complex health and personal care needs living in their own home instead of in residential or nursing homes or long stay hospitals, the provision of personal domiciliary care services is evolving rapidly and reflects changes at the interface between health and social care. These standards will be applied to agencies providing personal care to the wide range of people who need care and support whilst living in their own home, including: older people, people with physical disabilities, people with sensory loss including dual sensory impairment, people with mental health problems, people with learning disabilities, children and their families, and personal or family carers.
