Agenda item

7.1

The Committee considered a report of the Director of Adult Health and Social Care and the Deputy Place Director Sheffield Place - Integrated Care Board.

The overarching Adult Health and Social Care vision was for every adult in Sheffield to be able to age well and live the life they want to live, with choice and control over the decisions that affect them.

The purpose of the report was to articulate the ambition in relation to hospital discharge, urgent care, and avoidable admission as well as a delivery plan so that individuals can return home from hospital when well.

7.2

RESOLVED UNANIMOUSLY: That the Adult Health and Social Care Policy Committee:-

1.    Agrees the direction of travel and planned improvement activity; and

2.    Requests that the Director of Adult Health & Social Care provides the Committee with updates on progress against the Delivery Plan on a 6 monthly basis.

7.3

Reasons for Decision

7.3.1

As a partnership between agencies in Sheffield, we have made a commitment to admission avoidance.

7.4

Alternatives Considered and Rejected

7.4.1

Do nothing: It would be possible not to produce a plan in relation to discharge – but it would mean any activity would lack focus, coherence, and public accountability.
