Islington Council reports robust performance in Take Home and Settle services, while facing challenges with care home admissions.

Islington Council's Health, Wellbeing and Adult Social Care Scrutiny Committee heard in March 2026 that Take Home and Settle services, which assist individuals returning home from care, showed robust performance in the Q2 2025/26 Performance Report.

Despite this, the committee was informed that Islington is facing challenges with new care home admissions. However, 81% of residents require no further support after reablement, and ambitious improvement targets are in place.
