Synopsis

The Individual Service Funds Handbook is the definitive guide to one of the most innovative forms of personal budget in health and social care. It gives a clear explanation of what Individual Service Funds (ISFs) are, how to use them effectively and includes all the information you need in order to implement them in your organization. The Handbook first provides an overview of the thinking and policy underpinning personalization and personal budgets, and describes how health and social care services are changing in order to meet the need for personalized services. Drawing extensively on the evidence gathered by six pioneering provider organizations, it examines the benefits and challenges that have accompanied the use and implementation of ISFs within these organizations. The Handbook spans a range of settings, including a dementia care home, supported living and residential homes for adults with learning disabilities and people who use mental health services. It also sets out guidelines and templates which can be used when implementing ISFs, addressing key practical concerns including: how to put together effective support pans, how to ensure that ISFs are delivered in a person-centered way, how to overcoming organizational complexities in implementation and supporting managers. A one-stop resource for anyone wanting to understand the potential of ISFs, the Handbook is required reading for service providers, commissioners, and those engaged in person-centered practice and personalization, including user-led organizations.
