Care and Social Services Inspectorate Wales and Healthcare Inspectorate Wales have today challenged local authorities and health boards to improve the planning and delivery of services for people with learning disabilities.
The inspectorates delivered a lengthy national inspection programme in six local authorities and local health boards, to see how services were planned and delivered for people in those local authority areas.
The inspectorates have also produced an all-Wales report, asking all local authority areas in Wales to improve their offer and way of working, so that people with learning disabilities can make sure they can achieve the outcomes that matter to them.
Today, a launch will be held at iSmooth, a Mencap Cymru social enterprise in Ammanford to mark the publication of the reports.Ā The Inspectorates will meet with local authority and health board representatives as well as advocacy / involvement groups who took part in the fieldwork and research for the National Inspection including All Wales People First and the All Wales Forum of Parents and Carers.
