Prison
All sequels
All unplanned reviews in prison must be captured under the prison setting. There is no need to record different sequels for these reviews. For those councils where there is no prison in the area, the cells should be left blank.
Nursing and residential setting
Move to community
Where a client is reviewed in a residential/nursing setting, but the conclusion is that they will move back into the community (including cases where a home is going to be deregistered and the client will continue to live there) then this option applies. Moves to supported living arrangements from registered care homes will also be captured here if the move is the outcome of a review.
Short Term Support to Maximise Independence
Support provided that is intended to be time limited, with the intention of maximising the independence of the individual and reducing/eliminating the need for ongoing support by the local authority. These clients will appear in STS002b in this or the following year.
Move to nursing care
Choose this if a client based in residential care is now moving to registered nursing care (in previous years this was recorded as an increase in the level of care).
Move to residential care
Choose this if a client based in nursing care is now moving to residential care (in previous years this was recorded as a decrease in the level of care).
No change to long term support
Despite a change in client circumstances, the review does not result in a move between residential and nursing care, or to the community. Changes in support within residential or nursing settings (including moves between homes within those categories) are always recorded as ‘No Change in Long Term Support’ within SALT.
All long term support temporarily suspended
Changes in client circumstances may result in suspension of care, where the client remains on the books following an emergency hospital admission.
All long term support ended
This may apply either if a client dies immediately following review, or if the client is going to be supported through other means (e.g. by family or private provision). This also includes cases where funding is taken over by the NHS and end of life cases. Clients who die before the review is completed should not be included in LTS002a.
Community setting
Move to nursing care
Choose this if a community based client is now moving to registered nursing care.
Move to residential care
As above but for registered homes that do not offer nursing care.
Short Term Support to maximise independence
Support provided that is intended to be time limited, with the intention of maximising the independence of the individual and reducing/eliminating the need for ongoing support by the local authority. These clients will appear in STS002b in this or the following year.
Level of long term support increase
Although this measure does not capture the degree of increase in care support, it should be possible for local authorities to record the direction of changes to packages.
No change in long term support
Despite a change in client circumstances, the review does not result in any significant change to the level of long term support being made.
Level of long term support decreased
In some cases, unplanned reviews may reveal not all support being provided was actually needed and reductions are made
All long term support temporarily suspended
Changes in client circumstances may result in suspension of care, where the client remains on the books following an emergency hospital admission.
All long term support ended
This may apply either if a client dies immediately following review, or if the client is going to be supported through other means (for example by family or private provision). This also includes cases where funding is taken over by the NHS and end of life cases. Clients who die before the review is completed should not be included in LTS002a
