The NHS Information Centre is providing free information about adult social care services and performance across the country that can be used for monitoring and benchmarking.
Launched in July this year, the National Adult Social Care Intelligence Service (NASCIS) is being developed as the single authoritative source of social care data for practitioners and commissioners.
Set up in partnership with the Department of Health, the Association of Directors of Adult Social Services and other national bodies, it is designed to improve service delivery.
NASCIS provides up to date consistent data and indicators, to allow benchmarking, monitoring and comparisons between services, for example scrutinising the take up of direct payments and personal budgets, or finding out how much is spent on particular services in specific areas.
