[Slideshow Title - edit in Headers & Footers] Putting People First – what is it? • Putting People First is an agreement between central and local government and other key organisations about the direction for adult social care for the next 10 years and beyond. • Published in December 2007, it sets out the shared aims and values which will guide the transformation of adult social care and radically improve people’s experience of local support and services. • It supports partnership working between central and local government, social care professionals, providers… and builds on the 2006 White Paper “Our Health, Our Care, Our Say”.
[Slideshow Title - edit in Headers & Footers] Putting People First - Vision “The overall vision is that the state should empower citizens to shape their own lives and the services they receive” “What it means is that everyone who receives care and support, regardless of their level of need, in any setting, whether from statutory services, the third and community or private sector or by funding it themselves, will have choice and control over how that care and support is delivered.”
