• West Yorkshire Dementia-ready Housing Task Force,
• Homes and healthy ageing principles,

The Y&H annual account for 22-23, featuring spotlights on: the SLI Board, Homecare Workshops, What Good Looks Like, Coproduction and Statistical Process Control.

Over the summer and autumn of 2022 the three Northern ADASS regions have collaborated to produce this CQC assessment preparation resource. The content, in particular the indicative characteristics of ‘what good looks like’ and current challenges, have been generated by 4 working groups made up of operational, strategic and senior leaders from across the 3 northern ADASS regions. This final Resource Pack was compiled with support from Sarah Newsam of Strategy for Change. The resource recognises and highlights key issues and context of our Northern councils with adult social service responsibilities, and suggests what good practice may look like against the CQC Quality Statements as outlined in September 2022. It is intended to provide context and points for reflection as councils assess their own readiness for the introduction of assurance.

Please be aware that the CQC assessment framework is still in draft and some changes may be introduced before finalisation. The resource pack does not include reference to the new Equity in Experience & Outcomes Quality Statement, suggested by CQC in November 2022.

The Resource Pack is intended to be iterative and will continue to be reviewed and improved in response to feedback and as national documents are published.

Once you have had an opportunity to review the Resource Pack we would really value your feedback. The following short survey should take no more than 5 minutes to complete, and we would be grateful for your views as we continue to support assurance preparation across the North of England: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/WhatGoodLooksLike
