Social services and well-being study

No

The initial point of contact assessment initiates the process of social care intervention and therefore has a direct impact on the type of outcome that people receive. For the first time, carers have an equal right to an assessment for support as those they care for.

We will carry out detailed fieldwork in five councils: Cardiff, Denbighshire, Merthyr Tydfil, Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire.

This study forms part of the Auditor General for Wales’ annual programme of local government studies.
