The Assistant Director Operational Delivery and Professional Standards presented the report of the Director of Care and Health which was a performance report in relation to Adult Social Care and Public Health. It was noted that the increase in care home clients was less than proportional to the increase in population which was a sign of positive interventions of the Home First initiative. There were measures in place to improve the quality of care homes and to enable reablement of clients so they do not suffer a detriment to their lifestyle as a result of treatment.

Members questioned the distribution and improvement progress of care homes.

Resolved: That the content of the report be noted.
