The Common Assessment Framework for Adults brings together and builds on the current Single Assessment Process (SAP) and the Care Programme Approach (CPA) in mental health.
The Common Assessment Framework aims to improve outcomes for all adults with complex, longer-term health and social care needs. Its unified approach will be especially helpful to those who previously had to deal with separate health, social care and other support systems.
The proposals will be the subject of a public consultation commencing in January. An online consultation facility to submit your views will be available when the consultation commences in January 2009. You can register at (External) http://dh.dialoguebydesign.net/ .
A series of consultation events are also being held and you can register at (External) http://networks.csip.org.uk/Personalisation/PersonalisationEvents/ .
