Agenda item

Consideration was given to a report about a stocktake on progress made locally in response to the Winterbourne View Concordat published by the Department of Health in December 2012.

The stocktake highlighted the need for the development of local care and support options for younger adults with complex needs.  Health and social care commissioners were charged with ensuring that their systems for monitoring care quality were robust and effective.

There were currently only two people in Slough care in the cohort covered by the report (ie. living in hospital accommodation).  Plans were in place to move one of the two into a community setting by June 2014, and a transition plan was in place for the other person.

Resolved -  That the actions being taken locally to ensure delivery against the Winterbourne View requirements published in December 2012 be noted.
