The Executive Meeting considered proposals to return the home support / reablement service back to the Council from ISSK in order to improve performance and to take advantage of opportunities for collaborative and integrated working with health and social care partners and has agreed that
(1) approval be given to the transfer of the home support/ reablement elements of ISSK to the Council as soon as practicable subject to all necessary Human Resources and Legal requirements being met, and that approval be given to undertake further consultation with staff on these proposed changes.
(2) a further review be undertaken on the residual services of ISSK with a view to proposals being made to the Executive on the appropriate way forward, including the option of these services remaining with a reduced size ISSK.
