Sleep-in rates for Care Providers

“Have rates for sleep-in shifts paid to providers of domiciliary care for young adults under the age of 65 with special needs, or to residential care providers (under 65 or over 65) been amended during the 2017/18 financial year?

Some contracts across this sector have already been subject to reviews and amendments; others are timetabled to be reviewed in the year ahead.

What rates have been agreed and communicated to providers in this regard?

The Council has negotiated fees with each provider on a case by case basis.

If no amendments have been made, are you currently re-negotiating rates?”
