Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspection

The City of London Corporation has extended a big thank you to all residents, people who use Adult Social Care services and LINk members who contributed towards the Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspection of the City’s Adult Social Care Service in September 2009. The inspection focussed on: safeguarding adults; choice and control for older people; commissioning and the use of resources; and leadership.

The CQC praised the City for the increased choice and control offered to older people, including those from diverse backgrounds, as well as for providing distinctive and innovative services focussing on health, education, wellbeing and lifestyle. The report rated efforts to ensure the safeguarding of adults as being adequately carried out, and noted prompt action taken to safeguard adults when referrals were received. The City has agreed an action plan to implement the CQC’s recommendations and will report on progress to the CQC at the end of June 2010. Copies of the report and action plan are available from Kat Cook on 020 7332 1219.

Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA)

The JSNA is the process by which Local Authorities and Primary Care Trusts ascertain the future health, care and well being needs of the local population. The information in the JSNA helps service planning and commissioning , and feeds into the work on the Local Area Agreement and the Sustainable Communities Strategy ( The City Together). The JSNA is a statutory requirement for Local and Health Authorities.

The City of London, the London Borough of Hackney and NHS City and Hackney has drafted the 2011-2012 JSNA, which is called the Health and Wellbeing Profile for Hackney and the City.

Please note this is in draft stage only. Please send amendments and comments to will.anderson@elc.nhs.uk by 17 January 2012.
