/ 24.9.15 / 12 / Adult, Young People and Children’s Learning Disabilities (LD) Services in Waveney
LD inpatient services for adults, children and young people are provided in Lothingland, owned and run by NSFT.
Modern practice suggests the CCG should consider delivering care for these residents in new ways. Drivers include:
  • national policy changes for patients with LD following Winterbourne View (now known as ‘Transforming Care’)
  • a similar redesign project in Suffolk for LD services
  • a move to community based care
This paper sets out proposals for the way forward for these services, with a focus on redesign to deliver a community based model.
This process would be supported by engagement with both our communities and the local health scrutiny committees.
CG added that the children concerned are being kept in these facilities for months, as a long term placement, and this service does not now meet their ongoing needs and should be changed. They need more access to assessment with plans for ongoing care being available and actively implemented. She expressed the view that the proposal is a positive more forward for the wellbeing of these children.
The Governing Body approved progress in this direction.
