Our strategy sets out how we expect adult social care in Portsmouth to be shaped in the future and our vision for how we plan to make changes, working with people in Portsmouth and all our partners to address challenges we have identified.
Having a strategy is crucial for:
- people who live in Portsmouth to understand what adult social care is and does in Portsmouth and to hold us to account
- social care staff to know how their work supports people who live in Portsmouth and to have a clear sense of purpose
- staff across the council to understand adult social care and how it contributes to the overall Portsmouth vision and city plan
- the council to demonstrate how we manage our limited resources – putting our time, money and energy into the best possible outcomes and achieving the best value for money.
