| Annotation | There is growing evidence from the Partnerships for Older People Projects (POPPs) pilots and elsewhere that people with complex health and social care needs benefit greatly from joint health and social care assessment, case management, and flexible support interventions. This DVD has been produced to provide learning from the POPPs and other schemes. Short films explore the practical detail of how and why particular interventions have been set up to cater for needs ranging from none to complex, and what benefits they have subsequently demonstrated. Schemes featured for complex needs are: complex care teams (Devon); community matron support (Kent); and intermediate care (Poole). Substantial needs are represented by: mental health enablement (Bradford and Leeds); reablement (Leicestershire); dementia home support (South West); and falls prevention (Cambridge, Stockport and Ipswich). Moderate needs examples are: care co-ordination (Brent); dementia peer support (Bradford); and memory service (East Sussex). Low to no needs examples are: navigator service (East Sussex); village agents (Gloucestershire); and access to information (Nottinghamshire, Tameside and Isle of Wight). Geared towards commissioners and senior decision makers, this resource emphasises the importance of working together to deliver the Prevention and Early Intervention component of the Putting People First agenda. The PSSRU evaluation, 'The national evaluation of Partnerships for Older People Projects' and a DH report 'Improving care and saving money: learning the lessons on prevention and early intervention for older people' were published at the same time as this DVD. These documents and the DVD are also available on the DH website (at www.dh.gov.uk/en/SocialCare/Deliveringadultsocialc... (RH). |
