Dear Mr Hudson

Thank you for your request for information, received at this office on

Domiciliary Care Delivery/Capacity     

The above is a summary of your request. The full details of the
information sought is provided to the officer to whom the request is
tasked.

Your request will now be considered and you will receive a response within
the statutory timescale of 20 working days as defined by the Act, subject
to the information not being exempt or containing a reference to a third

We have noticed that you have sent in two requests under Freedom of

There may be a fee payable for the retrieval, collation and provision of
the information you request. If this is the case you will be informed and
the 20 working day timescale will be suspended until we receive payment
from you. If you choose not to make a payment then your request will
remain unanswered.

Some requests may also require either full or partial transference to
another public authority in order to answer your query in the fullest
possible way. Again, you will be informed if this is the case.

Dear Mr Hudson

Thank you for your request for information dated 06/12/2018 concerning
Domiciliary Care Delivery/Capacity

This is to inform you that your request has been considered and I can
provide the following response:

The Request:

Question A: Currently PCC SCS provides Assessed Needs to a number of
people in Powys via Contracts with registered Domiciliary Care Providers.

The sum total of this Care is recorded in hours purchased and delivered to
the clients assessed needs.

This has been written as a statement instead of a question, although in
order to be of assistance we have tried to answer it:  

As at 01.10.18, Powys County Council commissioned 11374 hours per week of
domiciliary care.

I do not require any hours funded via Direct Payments to be included in
this request.

My request for data can be based on your ‘best opportunity’ to provide the
data in a manner that it is easily extracted from your own recorded
monitoring. An example might be that your current data is provided as the
last full month/quarter/year of data your system is showing.

Question B: Average Number of Registered Domiciliary Care Providers
including SCS own Providers during the period covering hours data
supplied.

As at 01.10.18 there were 18 domiciliary care providers delivering care to
Local Authority Service Users in Powys, including Powys County Council’s
in-house domiciliary care service.

Question C: Number of Hours ‘Care’ delivered by SCS own Registered
Domiciliary Care Provider.

As at 01.10.18, 1203 hours per week were delivered by Powys County
Council’s in-house domiciliary care service.

Question D: Please breakdown hours in question C to show Reablement and
‘normal’ Domiciliary Hours (these hours service would be the same as those
delivered by Registered Providers)

As at the 01.10.18

Reablement 234 hours

Home Care 969 hours

For the purpose of clarification Re-ablement is time limited and funded
from other sources.

Question E: Please provide source of income stream of the Reablement
Service Hours being delivered.

Powys County Council (PCC) Baseline Budget       £2, 206,770

Section 33 Agreement with Powys Teaching Health Authority (PTHB) following
a Joint Winter Pressures bid £318, 670

We believe that this request is now complete and shall be closed
immediately. Should any further information be requested regarding this
topic, a separate request will need to be submitted.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your interest in
Powys County Council.

Yours sincerely,

Information Compliance Team
