Abstract
Design/methodology/approach: The review of strategic and operational commissioning in adult social care in England (and Scotland in brief) is based on both policy documents and a review of the literature, as are the sources addressing outcomes based commissioning in adult social care particularly in extra care housing settings.
Findings: The core of this paper focuses on the challenges to the implementation of OBC in adult social care in the context of provision for residents in extra care housing. Of central importance are the impact of the squeeze on funding, increasing costs as a result of demographic change and the introduction of a national living wage plus the focus on the needs of service users through the idea of person-centred care and resistance to change on the part of adult social care staff and workers in other relevant settings.
Originality/value: Addressing the implementation of OBC in adult social care in England in the context of extra care housing.
