Decision

1)       
that the Director of Adult Social Care be requested introduce a
formal fast?track process for home adaptations for individuals with
progressive or terminal illnesses such as Motor Neurone Disease
(MND), reflecting the approach already used in practice;

 

2)       
that timeframe targets are maintained for adaptations as
follows:

·        
55 days for simple/minor adaptations

·        
Aim to achieve 130 days for complex adaptations, while recognising
that major structural works may exceed these timescales due to
statutory and technical requirements; and

 

3)       
that the Director of Adult Social Care request that priority is
given to urgent and progressive-condition cases to ensure
adaptations are delivered as quickly as practicable.

Reasons for the decision

Motion in respect of MND.
