Proportion of adults with learning disabilities who live in their own home or with their family (10674) Metric type
- Help text
- The measure shows the proportion of all adults (aged 18-64) with a learning disability who are known to the council, who are recorded as living in their own home or with their family. The information would have to be captured or confirmed within the reporting period in the year to 31 March.
The definition of individuals 'known to the council' is currently restricted to those adults with a learning disability (with a primary client group of LD) who have been assessed or reviewed by the council during the year (irrespective of whether or not they receive a service) or who should have been reviewed but were not.
'Living on their own or with their family' is intended to describe arrangements where the individual has security of tenure in their usual accommodation, for instance because they own the residence or are part of a household whose head holds such security.
The change from ASC-CAR to SALT resulted in a change to who is included in the measure. Previously, this measure included 'all adults with a learning disability who are known to the council.' However, SALT table LTS001a only captures those clients who have received a long-term service in the reporting year. Furthermore, the measure now only draws on the subset of these clients who have a primary support reason of Learning Disability Support; those clients who may previously have been included in the client group Learning Disability in ASC-CAR might not have a primary support reason of Learning Disability Support, and are now excluded from the measure.
Furthermore the SALT return was changed in 2015-16 to enable councils to separate the number of people accessing long term support who are in Prison. The Prison column was added as a voluntary data item to SALT table LTS001a. This table is used to calculate ASCOF measures 1E and 1G. As the Prison column is voluntary, councils do not need to complete it. If a council does separate clients that are in prison, the clients in prison will not contribute to their ASCOF denominator. After reviewing the 2015-16 data, very few councils reported clients with learning disabilities in prison so it is not felt that this change will impact on comparability over time for 2015-16.
Only covers people receiving partly or wholly supported care from their Local Authority and not wholly private, self-funded care.
