These are what we already have to improve the provision of care:
the three year ‘Putting People First’ social care reform programme in every local authority area;
first ever national dementia and end of life strategies;
extension of ‘Dignity in Care’ campaign;
a new preventative health strategy specifically for older people;
extending the Human Rights Act to publicly funded residents of private care homes;
new 10-year carers’ strategy;
joint population needs assessment and local area agreements in every local authority area;
the review of the adult protection framework;
Lord Darzi NHS stage review report; and
the review of the care and support system leading to a Green Paper.
