The set of national indicators (NIs) for English local authorities and partnerships underpins the new performance framework for local government and introduces a clear set of national outcomes with a single set of national indicators by which to measure them. The first official year for these indicators is 2008-09 which also form part of the vital signs set for Primary Care Trusts. The social care information presented is an update of the social care data published on the 13th August 2009 (Social Care indicators from the National Indicator Set, Provisional, England 2008-09). The report provides figures for the following indicators: achieving independence for older people through rehabilitation/intermediate care (NI125); timeliness of social care assessment (NI132); timeliness of social care packages (NI133); number of carers receiving services (NI135); adults with learning disabilities in settled accommodation (NI145) and in paid employment (NI146); adults in contact with secondary mental health services in settled accommodation (NI149) and in paid employment (NI150).

Findings from the joint Mental Welfare Commission and Care Inspectorate visits to young people in secure care settings in Scotland. The visits took place in five secure care establishments and were completed in early 2014. Inspectors spoke to 27 young people and examined an additional eight records. A staff questionnaire was completed at each site and, in addition, staff were interviewed about each individual young person about whom information had been gathered. The report covers a range of thematic areas, including: journey into secure care and reasons for admission to secure care; contact with mental health supports prior to being received into secure care, and while in the placement; how is information about a young person’s mental health care needs communicated between external agencies and secure care units, and shared with care staff within units; how are young people involved in decisions about their mental health care and support; appropriate crisis management to ensure that young people with mental health difficulties remain safe at times when their behaviour is stressed and agitated; the importance of supportive services, both internal and external, focussing on the mental health needs of the young people in their care; and the interaction of unit staff with young people and external agencies in the planning of and providing support on discharge. For each areas the report sets out key messages and recommendations. (Edited publisher abstract)
