One of our partner organisations In control are working with The Council for Disabled Children (CDC) to deliver a series of one day regional workshops on the implications of the Children and Families Bill and associated NHS Mandate commitments, including the implementation of personal health budgets for children.
The event will run throughout February and March and will examine:
An introduction to the reforms affecting children with special educational needs and/or disability;
- The implications that this has for CCGs and other parts of the health system;
- The implementation of personal health budgets and how approaches might differ between adults and children;
- The specific components of the legislation together with discussion about practical ways of meeting the associated duties.
Following the event, both CDC and In Control will be delivering programmes of support for CCGs and other parts of the health system. The discussions that take place at these events will go on to shape the programme of support available and ensure that it responds to the issues being raised.
