| Annotation | Following a public consultation on draft revised guidance, the Department of Health (DH) has now published revised guidance on social care eligibility. The aim of the revised guidance is to support fairness, transparency and consistency of application, and to reflect the increased focus on personalisation and prevention as set out in Putting People First. This document supersedes the guidance DH document "Fair Access to Care Services: guidance on eligibility criteria for adult social care" (2003). See also the document published by the former Commission for Social Care Inspection (CSCI), 'Cutting the cake fairly: CSCI review of eligibility criteria for social care' (October 2008). (KJ/RH). |
