Adult Social Care Outcomes Framework (ASCOF)
Islington Council is currently addressing challenges in adult social care, particularly with new care home admissions, while noting strong reablement performance.
In March 2026, Islington's Health, Wellbeing and Adult Social Care Scrutiny Committee discussed challenges in adult social care, noting that new admissions to care homes remain a significant hurdle. This was despite strong performance in reablement services, where 81% of residents required no further support after intervention, according to the Adult Social Care Q2 2025/26 Performance Report.
The committee was informed in March 2026 that ambitious improvement targets are in place to address the issue of care home admissions. No further meetings or updates on the Adult Social Care Outcomes Framework (ASCOF) are currently scheduled for discussion at Islington Council.
