About adult social care
Adult social care can help you stay independent, safe and well for as long as possible.
People can draw on care and support in different ways and at different stages of their life. Some may only use social care for a short period (for example, after a hospital stay), while for others care needs develop suddenly or gradually. Some will require support throughout their life.
Adult social care can support adults of all ages with a diverse range of needs, including those with a learning disability or physical disability, mental health condition, dementia, autism, and other long-term conditions.
We aim to support people to stay independent, safe, and well so they can manage their own needs and achieve the life they want to live, with a big focus on wellbeing. Short-term and longer-term support may include[1]:
• information, advice, and guidance - including for unpaid carers
• ways to keep in touch with friends and family, and engage in social activities, we may link you with community activities and groups through our Know your Patch networks
• loaned equipment, technology and home adaptations
• personal care to manage daily tasks such as washing, dressing and household chores
• supported living and care homes.
