Gloucestershire County Council’s Cabinet is being asked to consider a proposal to reinvest resources from an underused reablement service into home based support, helping more people recover and stay independent in their own homes.
At its meeting on Wednesday 22 April, the council’s Cabinet will be asked to review a proposal to invest more in home‑based reablement – short‑term support that helps people regain confidence and independence, often after a stay in hospital.
As part of this proposal, Cabinet will consider closing Great Western Court, a short‑term reablement unit in Gloucester. The funding currently used to run the service, can be redirected into community‑based services.
