Description

Data on social care provided or purchased by Local Authorities from the Social Care Survey (Home Care Census prior to 2013), for the week that includes 31 March of the given year. The data is supplied by all 32 Local Authorities in Scotland, who collect this information as part of their Social Care Management Information system and is submitted to Scottish Government via ProcXed.

  • Home Care services, including re-ablement services
  • Meals services (provided or purchased by the local authority);
  • Housing Support services;
  • OPTIONAL - other services e.g. Shopping, Laundry.

  • Community Alarms / other Telecare services (this was previously only collected for the census week);
  • Services or support provided through Self-Directed Support, including Direct Payments;
  • Social Worker / support worker services

Ratio for clients aged 65+ is the percentage of home care clients that are aged 65 and over. Ratio for ‘older’ clients is the rate per 1,000 population of clients aged 65 and over.

Gender split only available for all clients (i.e. no split by age and gender).
