NHS Reforms Sample Clauses

NHS Reforms. The NHS White Paper and the NHS policy of Transforming Community Services have had implications for the arrangements between the Care Trust and Torbay Council. The requirement for PCTs to separate out NHS Commissioning and Provider functions represents a significant change. The Council has supported in principle the development of a South Devon provider unit as an interim position for up to 2 years while the Council, the Torbay Care Trust and other partners continue to work on a longer term solution. The Council remains committed to the frontline integration of health and social care and support the ongoing development of these arrangements. However the review of the current arrangements in light of system and financial changes have resulted in some changes to the formal arrangements and from the 1st April 2012 the DASS role will be undertaken by a Director of Torbay Council. The structures within the Council and Torbay Care Trust will be adjusted to reflect this change with the provision of frontline services remaining in the Care Trust, the establishment of a joint commissioning team for Adult Social Care and Supporting People and the extension of the SP Commissioning Body to incorporate Adult Social Care as the main decision making body for commissioning matters. The latter will be chaired by the DASS and have representation from both the Council and the Care Trust.
