    ·         Improve services for the most vulnerable people in Kent.

    Consultees

    This decision relates to the earlier decision, 13/00074 about the closure of Double Day Lodge which was subject to public consultation and was discussed and endorsed in the Social Care & Public Health Cabinet Committee, on the 16 January 2014.

     

    A full Equality Impact Assessment has been undertaken on the proposals which confirms that they can be implemented in a way that adequately takes account of the individual needs of existing residents and of other service users.

    Consultation was previously undertaken through the Older Persons Modernisation Programme which related to the closure of six in-house care homes, and proposed changes to four others. The feedback in Swale was strongly showing that extra care was a desired outcome for their community.
    Further consultation was undertaken by the Housing developer through the Planning process in 2012
