Care News from:
Welcome to the Social Care Finance Forum
The mission of the forum is to provide timely and relevant events for delegates covering the challenges of the adult social care agenda. Its events have been specifically geared towards local authority finance and service staff who are closely involved in the planning and delivery of adult social care. The forum has grown from strength to strength over the last couple of years. In 2009, four series of events were delivered as well a mini series, to nearly 400 delegates. This was nearly one third higher than the delegate numbers in 2008. The overall theme has been the personalisation of budgets to purchase social care. Specific events in 2009 covered the following topics; resource allocation models, costing of services, efficiency and commissioning, accounting systems and the audit of social care.
