LCC Adult Social Care Winter Plan
Decision status: Recommendations approved
Is Key decision?: No
Decisions:
The Lancashire County Council (LCC) Adult Social Care Winter Plan has been updated for 2017/18 to reflect the services in place and the social care planning and response to winter pressures.
The plan includes information about various enhanced responses over the winter period and the proposed service developments through the improved Better Care Fund (iBCF) funding that aim to improve the situation around delayed transfers of care, which typically increase through the winter period.
Whilst some of the funding for enhanced services are being met through the iBCF, there is however no formal designated resilience funding identified within these monies, and therefore further resilience discussions may need to take place with NHS partners around whole system planning.
The plan will be shared both internally in LCC and with each A&E Delivery Board across Lancashire for inclusion in the system wide winter planning and delivery reporting.
Resolved: That the Health and Wellbeing Board received and noted the LCC Adult Social Care Winter Plan.
