People to have more control in choosing their care services

The public has been told to expect to see more choice in local care and support services as local councils move a step closer to developing a wider range of services. 
The Developing Care Markets for Quality and Choice programme announced by the care minister Norman Lamb aims to improve choice, provide tailored care and focus care on the outcomes that matter to people.
 Currently some areas are not benefiting from the range of quality services available elsewhere. Local councils have been working hard to meet the needs of their community, however, more change is needed. 
Norman Lamb said: “We can’t have a one-size fits all approach. This new programme will increase choice in the care services provided.”
