Quality standard covering the provision of home care services to older people who have been assessed as needing social care support. Home care support can help people to stay independent and may include support with personal care, activities of daily living and essential household tasks. The standard consists of six quality statements: person-centred planning; plan for missed or late visits; consistent team of home care workers; length of home care visits; reviewing the outcomes of the home care plan; and supervision of home care workers. For each quality statement the standard provides details of the rationale, quality measures that can be used to assess improvement, and equality and diversity considerations. It also outlines what each quality statement means in practice for service providers, social care practitioners, commissioners, home care service users and carers. Although the majority of people using home care service are aged 65 and over, the quality standard may also be relevant to some people under 65 with complex needs. The standard does not cover intermediate care, short-term reablement, home care for younger adults or children using home care services. (Edited publisher abstract)
