It set out a clear framework for commissioners to reduce inpatient capacity by developing more community services for people with learning disabilities or autistic people with behaviour considered challenging.</p><p>The NHS Long Term Plan prioritises services for children and young people and commits to achieving at least a 50% reduction in the number of people with a learning disability or autism who are inpatients, compared to the figure in 2015, by the end of 2023/24.</p><p>Developing new models of care for those at the highest risk of being subject to restrictive practice was one of the recommendations made by the Care Quality Commission in the interim report of its thematic review of restraint, seclusion and segregation. We have accepted the report’s recommendations in full. We want a system that works for all people with learning disabilities and/or autism and provides the best possible care and treatment.</p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 07/10/2019 15:10:22 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage

These include the criminal offence in respect of Regulation 12 (safe care and treatment) of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014 in cases involving avoidable harm or a significant risk of avoidable harm to service users.</p><p>Although there were 67,500 allegations of mistreatment in care homes in 2018, the number of qualified allegations will be less than this figure. Within those qualified allegations, not all of them will be of as significant concern as to begin legal proceedings in the form of criminal prosecution. As such, numbers of prosecutions will be expected to be far lower than any number of allegations.</p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 08/10/2019 10:54:07 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage
