Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Purpose:

Approval for a new service model for people with learning disabilities in Swale

Decision:

As Cabinet Member for Adult Social Care and Public Health, I agree:

 

1) To change the Swale Learning Disability Day Services to a community hub based model as outlined in the attached report, subject to the current service being maintained until the replacements are up and running.

 

2) To utilise the identified capital money to obtain dedicated spaces within community hub buildings in Faversham, Sheerness and Sittingbourne, with the proposal of:

           two sensory multi-use spaces

           two adult changing places

           enhanced accessible features

Where community hubs are in a non KCC building there will be a capital grant agreement drawn up to protect KCC’s investment and ensure a rent free period.

 

3) That the Corporate Director for Social Care, Health & Wellbeing, or other delegated officer, to undertake the necessary actions to implement this decision.
