Section List / Section 3 - Current Services and Opportunities / Item 33 - Local Area Coordination
Definition : This item records whether the person has access to a local area coordinator and the use or desired use of that service.
Local area co-ordination provides a bridge that helps people to connect their aspirations and lives with support. It is a way of building and strengthening connections that will last. It supports people in identifying, accessing and making use of a range of supports, including informal supports.
Local area co-ordination was recommended by 'The same as you?' because it was seen as the best way to ensure that people with learning disabilities and their families would get the changes they were asking for.
Purpose : This item will record progress on the implementation of Recommendation 2 of “The same as you?” which recommended that local authorities and health boards should appoint local area coordinators.
