A new Making it Real guide for supported housing has been published by Think Local Act Personal (TLAP) and Sitra, part of Homeless Link.
Making it Real for Housing is aimed at commissioners and service providers. It offers advice and case study examples to show how housing can be tailored to be person-centred and focused on outcomes.
The guide is based around a set of ‘I’ statements that describes what good personalised care and support looks like from the perspective of people who use services. The statements cover different areas of provision and activity that impact well-being, they are:
- Information and advice
- The role of active and supportive communities
- Flexible and integrated care and support
- Personal budgets and self-funding
- Workforce and risk enablement.
