·         The purpose of this report is to approve the commissioning of a new Community Dementia Model for a period of two years (with an option to extend for three years), with the ICB as lead commissioner and City of York Council (CYC) as partner.

Consultation process

Engagement around future service delivery was undertaken. An online survey was sent to social workers and local area coordinators asking their views on gaps in community provision that are most important for the residents that are either supported by Adult Social Care (ASC) in their own homes or those who are supported by Local Area Coordinators in the community which would enable our residents to stay as independent as possible for as long as possible.
Age Friendly York Operation Group was attended by the Commissioner.
Customer feedback from the current Provider of community services.
