Aim

We, NHS Derbyshire County and Tameside and Glossop Primary Care Trust (PCT) have worked together with service user representatives who are disabled people or people with a sensory impairment, to produce a consultation document draft titled "Derbyshire Disabled People and/or People with a Sensory Impairment (Aged 18-64) - Joint Commissioning Strategy 2010-2014".

The main aim of this strategy is to show how the we, the PCT and other organisations will support disabled people and people with a sensory impairment in the future and how services will be developed.

Briefly, the issues identified come under the following headings:

  • Employment
  • training
  • accessible transport
  • access to leisure activities
  • information
  • advice
  • supported advocacy
  • access to a network of support 24/7
  • equality of access
  • timely access to appropriate services for all
  • accessible housing
  • timely access to provision of equipment
  • opportunity to plan and purchase care
  • to have a voice and influence
    quality care and support.

We need your help to:

  • Make sure we have got the plan right
  • identify if we have missed anything, and
  • decide what we should do first over the next 12 to 18 months.

You can read the full version of our new plan and appendicies, and share your views with us by completing the consultation leaflet in the related documents section.
