Worcestershire Care Choices Directory
Service users and carers have consistently identified information often citing the lack of good quality information as a barrier to accessing services from across health and social care.
In response to this Adult and Community Services, in partnership with Care Choices, have produced a Directory of services that will support you and help you to remain at home for as long as possible. The Directory provides valuable information for anyone who may need help and support either through a period of illness, or because of frailty of age or an enduring illness. Importantly the information provided within the Directory covers a range of services from; advocacy through to residential and nursing homes. The Directory includes information on the importance of having your needs assessed, both as a user of services and as a carer. It will also give you information about how, if you are eligible, you can access services provided by Adult and Community Services. The Directory also provides valuable information about Day opportunities, Direct Payments, Telecare, and paying for your residential/nursing home. |

As many as 8,000 copies of the Directory have been printed and distributed to main frontline teams across the County. In addition an e-book of the Directory is also available together with a PDF format which can be printed.
