Purpose of this Market Position Statement (MPS)
This MPS contains information and analysis that is of benefit to both current and prospective providers of Care Homes for People with Disabilities, Autistic People and people who have Mental Health needs, within Warwickshire. It summarises supply and demand in the local authority area or sub-region, and signals business opportunities within the care market in that area. It also signals the strategic direction and our future commissioning intentions.
This MPS outlines how Care Homes for People with Disabilities, Autistic People and Mental Health Needs may need to develop and adapt to meet future anticipated need/demand. This includes autistic people, people who have mental health issues, along with people with physical and learning disabilities aged between 18 and 64. It also sets out the key areas for market development by identifying where there are current or anticipated service gaps.
The test of a MPS is how well it is used by the provider market. Our aspiration for the future includes an interactive web-based version of the MPS, which will enable regular updates to be made and provide the market with up-to-date information that will assist providers when shaping their business decisions.
