Description

What do forthcoming legislative changes mean for domiciliary care services in Wales? Do you still need to think about forthcoming EU data protection regulations? What does outcomes-based commissioning mean for you and your business?

It's going to be a year of change for domiciliary care providers in Wales. The Welsh Government and Social Care Wales (SCW) will be rolling-out further changes under the two major Acts meaning important considerations for providers over the coming months.

But these developments come at a difficult time for the Welsh economy. Local authority funding is set for another real-term decrease in 2017/18 with pressures mounting on the sector from further National Minimum Wage rises and the increasing complexity and numbers requiring care and support.

This year's UKHCA annual provider forum will be an opportunity for you to hear from key figures in the sector, raise the issues most important to you and be part of the discussion with plenty of time set aside for questions and networking.

As well as the wider issues, it will also be a chance to look closely at practicalities surrounding outcomes-based commissioning and new data protection regulations.

We are delighted that Rebecca Evans, Minister for Social Services and Public Health, Welsh Government; David Francis, Assistant Chief Inspector, CSSIW; Professor Keith Moultrie, Institute of Public Care (Oxford Brookes) and Sheila Lyons, Workforce Development Manager, Social Care Wales with representatives from the Information Commissioner's Office (Wales) will be speaking.
