This healthcare framework provides recommendations designed to create better outcomes for adults living in care homes by fully integrating health and social care. It also supports a number of programmes, including the Framework for Community Health and Social Care Integrated Services and Getting it right for everyone (GIRFE).

A set of standards for local authorities (including practice statements and core components) to provide an overarching structure, aligned to legislation and statutory guidance, for further implementation of the self-directed support approach and principles.

Strategic planners within integration authorities work within complex systems and a developing landscape. There is a wealth of guidance, experience and examples of good practice within the health and social care system, which this framework attempts to draw together into one easy-to-understand structure.
