Peer support and the personalisation of adult social care
Added: 04/08/2009
Updated: 14/01/2011
The National Centre for Independent Living (NCIL) has produced a report looking at the evidence on peer support and links to personal budgets. The message from the report is that availability of peer support is essential in the drive to transform adult social care to give service users choice and control in how their individual support needs are met. The report includes a review of evidence from research, examples of good practice and recommendations for making peer support more widely available.
