A toolkit for auditing support to people with learning
disabilities and developing an outcomes-based action plan for
citizenship.
Hands Off It's My Home! is a successful toolkit now being
used by support providers and local authorities across the
country.
The toolkit can be used to ensure support providers (domiciliary
care, supported living and housing related) can fully understand
the impact on freedoms and citizenship that anything other than the
best quality of support will have on people with learning
disabilities.
People with learning disabilities should no longer have to put up
with 'quasi-living' (seeming to be but not really so) and this
toolkit should help achieve real lives for people.
The toolkit has recently been updated in response to the coming
changes in the Care Quality Commission regulations and standards,
and to reflect the concept of 'real
wealth' which will help support workers understand the breadth
of their role. It also now has more links to information that will
assist improvement.
Hand's Off It's My Home! has been produced by Sam Sly,
a Regulation, Health & Social Care Consultant.
