Your Life, Your Way
About the programme
Our programme is transforming the way adult social care services are designed and delivered in East Riding of Yorkshire. It supports the adult social care strategy and vision 2019-2022, and helps to manage the expected increase in demand for adult social care in future years, while also improving our service to better meet the needs of local residents. Our new operating model will help us to achieve our programme outcomes.
