2nd panel debate

The panellist explored the following questions:

  • What needs to be done to make housing organisations deliver inspirational service delivery?
  • What are the panel members doing in their own organisation?
  • With increasing pressure on finances (capital and revenue), does inspiration pay?
  • Is there evidence that assistive technology is being used effectively in ECH to improve outcomes for older and vulnerable people
  • How can ECH promote the health, wellbeing and quality of life of people with dementia living in the wider community?
  • Following Paul Burstow's Commission, do members of the panel foresee a time when ECH completely replaces residential care, or is there still a place for care homes?
  • Looking 20 years forward, what services would make you choose to live in housing with care?
