Extra Care Housing and Social Inclusion

Extra Care Housing – Care Provision (ECH)ECH is delivered within 7 schemes across Plymouth where people (the majority aged 55+) have their own self-contained homes as part of a larger complex, have a legal right to occupy the property and have the provision of 24/7 on-site care and support.

The service focuses on two key areas of delivery:

Core: The Core service for the seven schemes ensures care and support cover 24-hours a day. This is a fixed arrangement, available to all and delivered through a block payment (non-chargeable to clients). This core service will also provide planned support to those residents who have not been assessed as requiring an Adult Social Care assessed package of care and support but who require low level support to maintain independence, continue to enjoy health and well-being and remain socially engaged.

Commissioned care: The provision of one-to-one care and support that a significant number of Extra Care Housing Residents require and which has been assessed as being eligible within Adult Social Care Fair Access to Care Assessment.

People will have the choice of either selecting the core organisation to deliver this one-to-one care and support (as assessed as eligible by Adult Social Care) or may wish to select a different provider for this purpose.
