Case studies: The benefits of CareCubed

摘要

Essex County Council (ECC) spend c.£79m per annum on residential services for adults with disabilities, including those with learning disabilities and/or autism, physical and/or sensory impairments. This was identified as an area where ECC needed to enhance its knowledge and develop a more robust commercial approach. It was paying a wide range of fees (from £800 to £5,000 per week) for complex and varied care packages, dependent on individual care needs and location, across 990 adults in 369 homes in Essex and outside of the county.
