AnnotationFollowing the Government announcement that a Green Paper will be published on older people's care and support by summer 2018, this report provides a comprehensive summary of what needs to be considered. It brings together the ideas and suggestions of more than 30 individuals and organisations from across the care sector, whoc contributed to Independent Age's 'Doing care differently' blog (summer, 2017). The report examines six areas which encapsulate the social care reform agenda. First, meeting future demand, for example when 65% of people over 65, and 82% of those aged over 85 are living with two or more long-term conditions. The other five are: funding and responsibility; the power of quality care; achieving integration in care; the role of technology in caring; and sustainability and value for money. However, we all need to think and plan ahead to our own old age. (RH).
