To consider a report from the Gina Lawrence, the Director of Commissioning, NHS Trafford Clinical Commissioning Group and Linda Harper, the Director of Service Development, Adult and Community Services.

Minutes:

The Deputy Corporate Director, Children, Families and Wellbeing (Trafford Council) and the Chief Operating Officer (Trafford CCG) submitted a report which provided an update on the progress Trafford had made to date in respect of the Winterbourne View Concordat Commitment.  Board Members were advised that the Winterbourne View Joint Improvement Programme had requested local areas to complete a stocktake of progress against the commitments made nationally that should lead to all individuals receiving personalised care and support in appropriate community settings by no later than 1st June 2014.

 

The report further explained that the purpose of the stocktake was to enable local areas to assess their progress and for that information to be shared nationally. The stocktake was also intended to enable local areas to identify what help and assistance they required from the Joint Improvement Programme and to help identify where resources could best be targeted.

 

RESOLVED:

 

(1)          That the report, and progress on the Winterbourne View Stocktake, be noted.

 

(2)               That an exception report be provided to the next meeting on the basis of actions flagged as ‘Amber’ (denoting support may be required).
