Digital Social Care Records have been implemented in more than 50% of care providers. This is an increase from 45% of providers in March 2022. We have provided integrated care systems with £14 million to support with the establishment and piloting of care technologies locally. The client-level dataset is being developed and from April 2023, it will collect data on those who receive care and support from local authorities. From April 2023, the Care Quality Commission (CQC) will begin assessing local authorities’ delivery of their adult social care duties. The CQC have been working with local government, the care sector and people with care and support needs to develop a framework for these assessments.</p> answering member constituency Faversham and Mid Kent answering member printed Helen Whately question first answered 13/12/2022 15:57:34 answering member 4527 label Biography information for Helen Whately
