Common use of Reshaping Care for Older People Clause in Contracts

Reshaping Care for Older People. The aim of the Reshaping Care for Older People programme is to redesign services and increase the range of supports to ensure they are both sustainable in the long term and that they improve outcomes. Older people have said that given the option, they want to stay in their own homes for as long as possible, and have care that is personalised according to their own individual needs and preferences. Reshaping Care promotes community capacity building and new models of care and support that shift the balance of provision away from institutional care, towards care at home. The Reshaping Care Strategy for Glasgow will shape the planning of older people’s services in the City, and contains representatives from the NHS Board, Social Work Services, the Independent Sector (represented by Scottish Care) and the Voluntary Sector (represented by GCVS, as part of the Third Sector Interface).
