All over the UK, local NHS organisations have joined forces with local councils, including in the Black Country, Birmingham and Solihull (West Midlands).
The Adult Social Care Digital Transformation Fund will support the adult social care sector to adopt digital social care records (DSCR), also known as digital care plans, to ensure care teams have the most accurate, timely information at their fingertips to provide outstanding care.
If you are a CQC registered Adult Social Care provider in the West Midlands, the good news is it is easy to apply for funding from your local authority.
