Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To examine the relationship between care management arrangements and the Care Programme Approach (CPA) in the context of old age mental health services and, particularly, dementia services. METHOD:The information reported is from a national study of care management arrangements, funded by the Department of Health. A response rate of 77% was obtained from local authority social services departments. RESULTS:In old age mental health services over half of the respondents reported joint screening arrangements for health and social care, almost four-fifths reported both joint criteria for the allocation of key workers and a clear definition of monitoring responsibilities. Of the latter over two-fifths were reported as being the same in care management and the CPA. Forty-six per cent of respondents provided a specialist service for people with dementia. Three-fifths of respondents reported that they did not apply CPA to people with dementia who were in receipt of care management or did so in less than 20% of cases. Where the CPA was applied it was more likely that a priority would be accorded to care management. A quarter of respondents reported the shared use of assessment documentation for people with dementia. DISCUSSION:The findings are set in the context of service developments to date and the implementation of the two systems of community based coordinated care for older people with mental health problems. Inter-authority variations are noted and the potential for greater service integration within the current legislative framework assessed.
