Care and Prevention for Older People: a Need for Services Toolkit
delivering the evidence to support your decision making
When you’re planning and commissioning services for older people, there’s no shortage of data.
But crucially, it’s the transformation of that data into meaningful information that gives you confidence in your thinking and adds weight to your negotiations.
The Toolkit allows you to manipulate complex data interactively and easily, enabling you to evaluate with precision the core influences on service need in your area.
And because it’s on your desktop rather than in a folder on the shelf, you can quickly sense check your decisions as conditions change during the life of your project. The Toolkit allows you to:
- project the differing levels of needs of older people in your area for up to 20 years
- determine the units of care required to service these needs and their cost
- identify shortfalls or over-supply
- assess the levels of under-occupancy in housing, and identify the potential for equity release and downsizing
In addition you can easily manipulate data to understand complex influences on service need including:
- the ability of people to pay for services
- the impact of informal care from friends and family
- the impact of local differences in income, health and household profile
