Abstract
AIM: To provide guidance to providers, commissioners and regulators involved with changing registered accommodation and care into supported living for learning disabilities.
METHODOLOGY: The methodology was not specified, but the report draws on examples of good practice provided by individuals and 20 named agencies.
CONCLUSION: Personalising support for people already living in residential care requires creative thinking about how to offer realistic choices in how and where they want to live. By adopting a project management approach and identifying pathfinders and pathways, providers can increase the rights, choices and control of service users from a place of their choosing.
