Care Partnership

New Aberdeen Care At Home Arrangements Take Shape

Aberdeen City Health & Social Care Partnership (ACHSCP) is making plans to improve how care is delivered to people living in Aberdeen.

Care and support services in people’s homes across the three ACHSCP localities have been successfully awarded to the Granite Care Consortium (GCC) under new commissioning arrangements. GCC is a new consortium of 10 local care and support providers who have a well-established history of providing care to thousands of our residents in Aberdeen over many decades; if you receive any care at home services, letters have been distributed to inform you of these updates.

Locality Empowerment Groups - Re-Imagining Day Support Online Session

This is your opportunity to hear more about the new model; let us know about what is important to people and how local communities can support the changes moving forward.

Background and our Commitment

Aberdeen City Health and Social Care Partnership are currently reviewing its provision of day support. Our commitment – to work with you, your carers, and our partners to ensure that there is sufficient choice of activity, local to your community (people or place) to support you and your carer to achieve your outcomes. The word outcomes mean different things to different people. Within this context, when we refer to outcomes, we mean achieving what will maintain or improve your health and well-being.

Purpose of this formal consultation

The formal consultation will contribute to a proposal for a new model of day support, which is due to be considered for approval at the Integration Joint Board’s (IJB) meeting at the end of October 2020. The purpose of the consultation is two-fold:

1. To ensure that those directly involved in current day care provision (those people who receive the support, their carers, and the providers of the support) understand the new model and the implications of the changes that will take place and can contribute their ideas for how this transition can best be made.

2. To inform the wider public about the changes that are taking place and gain their views about how best this transition can be made.

It is important to note that this approach to codesigning and co-producing the new day support model will continue after its formal adoption by the IJB i.e., we will continue to work with you over the coming months to achieve our commitment stated above.
