Adult Social Care 1st Quarter Performance Report Additional documents: Minutes: Chrissy Wright, Director of Commissioning and Partnerships presented the submitted report which outlined the 2010/11 Quarter 1 Key Performance Indicator results for the Adult Social Care elements of the Directorate. Seventeen KPIs were included in the suite, and of these at the end of Quarter 1, 76% (13) remained on target.
The following four performance measures did not achieve their target at Quarter 1.
At the end of Quarter 1 we were helping 5,666 service users to live at home. This score included last year’s voluntary sector figures plus service users currently in receipt of an assessed care package.

Discussions had commenced with the Voluntary Sector to develop a commissioned support service for people who contact us, but following assessment did not meet FACS, approximately 3000 per year.
This indicator was showing off target with a Quarter 1 score of 18.08% against a milestone target of 22.67%. However, 225 reviews had been completed during Quarter 1 that were still to be authorised and were not counted in the score. With these included the Quarter 1 score would be 21% which was just under the milestone target.
The roll out of personalised budgets had also had an impact on the rate of reviews undertaken as changes to business processes and the introduction of new forms and IT system changes had been put in place. This had affected the productivity of social work teams as they adjust to new ways of working.
A performance clinic was held on 29th July and the following actions were put in place:
This indicator measures the percentage of service users who had received a current statement of their needs and how these were being met.
