Birmingham case study on reshaping the market for extra care sheltered housing and supported living. This forms part of our adult social care markets and commissioning resource.
Birmingham City Council recognises that in future there will be reduced demand for residential care and more for extra-care housing for older age adults.
The council is aiming to get providers thinking about developing larger scale supported living arrangements/environments on a core-and-cluster model.
The council has invested in developing good relationships with supported housing providers which have resulted in progressive conversations about meeting needs differently.
