Voluntary Sector Health and Social Care Network (27th September 2024)

The VCS Health and Social Care Network is aimed at voluntary, community and faith-based organisations (VCFS). It seeks to:

• Provide the opportunity for the VCFS to network on health and social care related issues
• Provide the opportunity for statutory partners to share updates and engage the VCFS on work relating to health and social care
• Enable the VCFS to have a voice and the opportunity to influence local decision-makers in health and social care
• Explore collaborative working opportunities

The next session is being held on Friday 27th September, 10am – 12pm at DY1 Hall, Stafford Street, Dudley. The session will focus on the following:

• *The Director of Adult Social Care engaging the sector on their CQC inspection
• An update on the work and initiatives of the Dudley Health and Care Partnership Board
• An update on developments with the Sustaining the Voluntary Sector workstreams -The Dudley Compact, Trusteeship and External Funding
  *“Help Dudley Adult Social Care to write their self-assessment and your role in the CQC Inspection”

The Self Assessment tells everyone

• How Adult Social Care works with people in Dudley
• How Adult Social Care provides support to people in Dudley
• How Adult Social Care ensures safety in Dudley
• What Dudley Council’s leadership approach is

Dudley MBC wants to share their draft self assessment with you and ask you what you think, what do you feel about where we are in Adult Social Care in Dudley? Where do we need to improve? We will also use this opportunity to tell you about the CQC inspection and how you might be involved.
