We already work closely with Derbyshire Community Health Services NHS Foundation Trust (DCHS) to help people retain their independence.
Formalising arrangements
We’re now proposing to formalise the arrangement through a Section 75 agreement, which is a legal agreement between us and DCHS, to create a single service which would involve combining the budgets for assessment and reablement activities across both organisations.
The proposals include potential for the teams to join together under a single employer.
The joint consultation runs until Thursday, 16 January 2025, and we’d like to hear your views.Find out more and fill in the online questionnaire.
