This evidence may be sent either by email (admin@lscpinfo.co.uk) or by post (Liverpool Social Care Partnership, 5 De Havilland Drive, Estuary Business Park, Speke, Liverpool, L24 8RN). We will not accept FAX submissions for evidence.

How to complete a WDF Partnership Form

Wed, 19 Sep 2012 16:08:00 +0100

To register for Workforce Development Funding you will need to complete a ‘WDF Partnership Membership Form 2012/2013”. Firstly you will need to download a copy of the form, it is best to download this form directly from the Skills for Care website to ensure that you have the most up to date version of the form. You can download the form from this website:
http://www.skillsforcare.org.uk/funding/workforce_development_fund/accessing_wdf.aspx

At the time of writing this post the most up to date version is v1.1 and can be downloaded by clicking here.

Once the form has been downloaded you will need to open the .PDF file with Adobe Acrobat Reader. There are other .PDF reading software packages available, however if you wish to use electronic signatures it is advised that you use the Adobe software.

Once the document has been opened you will see something like this:

It is important that you read this document thoroughly before attempting to sign as there are a number of agreements that are being made by signing and submitting this document to join a Partnership. Once you have read through the document and you are happy to proceed you may begin entering your data as required.

The first piece of data in the top right corner of the document is the NMDS-SC ID Number, as shown here:

Your NMDS-SC ID is possibly the most important piece of information contained in this document. Skills for Care will need this identification number to ensure that you have adequately updated your National Minimum Data Set to reach the minimum 90% completion in order to obtain Workforce Development Funding. Failure to supply this number will result in your application for membership being denied.

Generally these numbers begin with a letter (usually F) followed by 5 or 6 numerical digits. If you have not yet obtained an NMDS-SC ID then you should visit the NMDS website and register. If in doubt you may call the NMDS helpdesk on 0845 873 0129.

The rest of the information is fairly self explanatory, please note that the Name of our partnership is the Greater Merseyside Care Partnership.

You may also enter secondary address details which will be used as your preferred contact information. This may be helpful if you are registering an establishment but would still prefer all communication to go through a head office.

If you have multiple establishments which you would like to register for membership, there are additional pages provided (example below) which allow you to enter the basic information required to register these establishments (Name or Establishment, NMDS-SC ID and the address of the establishment. If you do not have multiple establishments you may ignore all but the first page.

Once you reach the bottom of the first page you will notice that there is a space for a signature, and when you hover over this space with your mouse it will say “Click here to Sign”, as shown below.

Please note that at this point you may prefer to print off the document and sign it with ink by hand. This can then be sent via post to:

Liverpool Social Care Partnership,
C/O Crossroads Care
5 De Havilland Drive
Estuary Business Park
Speke,
L24 8RN

Alternatively you could scan the document back on to your computer and email it to:
admin@lscpinfo.co.uk

OR you may fax your Partnership Form to 0151 427 7044.

However, with this new version of the Partnership Form there is also the option to digitally sign the form with an encrypted code, to do this you will need to click on the signature portion of the form, the following window will appear:

If you have not done this process before you will need to click “A New Digital ID I want to create now”, then click Next.

You will be given a number of options about what type of Digital Signature you would like to create, we recommend you choose the PKCS#12 Digital ID File for maximum compatibility. Once selected, click Next.

Next you will need to enter all of your information.

The bottom three parts of this form (“Enable Unicode Support”, “Key Algorythm”, “Use digital ID for:”) do not need to be changed. Once this form is completed click Next.

You will now be asked where you would like to save your digital ID file. If you are unsure where to save this file you can leave the default location provided, however be sure to make a note of this location for future reference!

Be sure to choose a password you will remember and then click Finish. The “Sign Document” window will appear.

From this window you have the option of selecting one of the Digital ID’s that are registered to your computer (or creating a new one!). Enter your password and then press the “Sign” button when ready. You also have the option to Lock Document After Signing. This is advised in most cases but be sure that you have fully completed the document before selecting this option!

Once this is done the signature portion of the document will look something similar to my signature below:

You may close the document and attach it to an email to:

admin@lscpinfo.co.uk

Your application will be received and registered with Skills for Care, if there are any issues you will be contacted. For more information you can contact John on 0151 427 7044.

Changes to CRB & ISA

Wed, 05 Sep 2012 13:50:00 +0100

From 1 September, organisations will have to follow the new identity guidelines when submitting CRB check applications.

On 28 May 2012, the CRB introduced new identity checking guidelines designed to make it more difficult for individuals to conceal previous criminal records by changing their identity.

These new guidelines have been running in parallel with the existing guidelines since 28 May to give organisations time to comply with the new guidelines and to introduce them into their identity verification procedures.

From 1 September, organisations will have to follow the new guidelines.

The set of scenarios developed to help organisations comply with the new guidelines has been expanded and now contains clear flow charts and more scenarios for each of the three routes as well as examples for checking non-UK applicants.

From 10 September, the Protection of Freedoms Act introduces a number of changes that will affect the CRB checking service

These changes include:

a new definition of regulated activity
the introduction of a new minimum age for CRB applicants
a new right for applicants to ask for a review of information released by the police

Full details of these changes can be found in the CRB and the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 section on the CEB website.

ISA Independent Safeguarding Authority

Some of the changes coming into effect on 10 September will also affect the work of the Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA).

Disclosure and barring

As part of the coalition agreement, the government committed to reviewing and reforming the vetting and barring scheme and criminal records regime, scaling them back to common sense levels.

This will ensure there is a continued service to help safeguard vulnerable groups including children from those people who work or volunteer with them who pose a risk of harm, while operating in a way that reduces the burden on employers and

Key changes to disclosure and barring

The key changes to the disclosure and barring scheme include:

abolishing registration and monitoring requirements
redefining the scope of ‘regulated activities’ - those are the activities involving close work with vulnerable groups, including children, which a barred person must not do
abolishing ‘controlled activities’

But a barring function will be maintained.

The provisions also mean that the services of the Criminal Records Bureau and Independent Safeguarding Authority will be merged and a single, new non-departmental public body created.

The new organisation will be called the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS). The planned operational date for the DBS is December 2012.

So, at a glance…

Major Changes in September 2012

New definition of regulated activity.
Repeal of controlled activity.
Repeal of registration and continuous monitoring.
Repeal of additional information.
Minimum age (16) at which someone can apply for a CRB check.
More rigorous ‘relevancy’ test for when police release information held locally on an enhanced CRB check.

Not Changing:

You must make appropriate referrals to the ISA
You must not engage in regulated activity someone whom you know has been barred by the ISA.
Everybody within the pre-September definition of regulated activity will remain eligible for enhanced CRB checked, whether or not they fall within the post-September definition of regulated activity.

We have asked ISA to undertake some workshops for us this autumn/winter and we are just awaiting some dates.

New Information on WDF/NMDS

Tue, 26 Jul 2011 16:29:23 +0100

Hi Everybody.

If you have applied, or wish to apply for Workforce Development Funding (WDF), please read the following information regarding eligibility.

This year, Skills for Care have tightened the requirements for funding, and are clamping down on paperwork. Any paperwork that does not meet the specified standard will be rejected, no funding will be awarded.

NMDS
For more information please visit http://www.nmds-sc-online.org.uk/

National Minimum Data Set (NMDS) completion is a requirement for WDF.

If you completed NMDS during last year’s TSI funding (2010/11):

If you have completed your NMDS to receive funding for last year’s TSI funding (2010/11) and your NMDS completion was recognised between 1-4-10 and 31-3-11 then your ‘COMPLETE’ NMDS status will remain valid until 30-9-11. You may submit claims up to this date. Claims must be completed and submitted to Skills for Care before this date. Because of the amount of administration required, any submissions based on a 2010/11 NMDS COMPLETE will need to be submitted to Liverpool Social Care Partnership before 17:00PM 1-9-11. Any claims submitted after this date will not be accepted. Please continue to read the rest of this email as there are other requirements for consideration.

If you have completed your NMDS to receive funding for last year’s TSI funding (2010/11) and your NMDS completion was recognised after 1-4-11 then your ‘COMPLETE’ NMDS status will remain valid for the entire funding year (11/12). Please continue to read the rest of this email as there are other requirements for consideration.

If you have not yet completed your NMDS and have received confirmation of its completion, you must do so before you can claim for any funding.

What is required for NMDS completion to claim for WDF Funding 2011/12:

An establishment must fully complete and update an NMDS organisational record. The establishment must fully complete individual worker records for a minimum of 90% of its total workforce (this includes staff who are not care-providing).

An NMDS-SC number (also known as F-Number) is required for a claim to be successful. If you do not know your NMDS-SC number, you can ring the NMDS-SC Helpline on 0845 873 0129.

Partnership Forms

A 2011/12 Partnership form is required to claim for WDF, older Partnership Forms will not be accepted. If any information is missing or incorrect on a Partnership form, you claim will not be accepted. Electronically completed Partnership Forms are preferred, if any information is illegible then your claim may be delayed, which may ultimately result in your claim not being processed.

The address your NMDS-SC Number is registered to must correspond to the address listed on your Partnership Form. You can only provide one NMDS-SC Number per partnership form, if your organisation has multiple establishments, then multiple Partnership Forms must be completed. We are unable to accept one Partnership Form for head office to cover multiple establishments, each with its own NMDS-SC number which corresponds to the correct address.

You can send in your claims to your Lead Partner (Liverpool Social Care Partnership) using the details at the bottom of this email. Submissions can be sent at any time leading up to the closing date, please note that towards the end of the funding year, LSCP and Skills for Care receive extreme amounts of ‘last minute’ claims, we will try to process all claims, however due to the increased load there is a likelihood that your claim may not be processed. It is your responsibility to ensure that claims are submitted in a timely manner to prevent claims being rejected.

Towards the end of the contract we tend to receive lots of claims, sometimes more than we can fulfil. In these circumstances we use a computer program to calculate the fair allocation of units. Your organisations ability to submit claims in a timely manner, size of organisation, previous claims (including previous funding years) and document quality will be taken into consideration.

More Information

We will continue to provide information regarding Workforce Development fund as it is received. If you have any questions regarding the information above, you can contact us on the number below. We have not yet published information on how to complete a claim and what evidence is required, please do not contact us regarding such information.

Wed, 08 Jun 2011 09:32:00 +0100

Posted on behalf of HomeInstead Senior Care:

“As you may be aware, Home Instead Senior Care (Liverpool Central & North) recently organised and produced a world first

‘Over 55’s Flashmob’ which was an astounding success, attracting 200 participants and a crowd of several hundred spectators to Liverpool One shopping centre. Nowhere else will you see this many seniors having so much spontaneous fun!

Our aim was to challenge the stereotypical image of people over 55 in our society. Zest for life and having fun is not reserved for the younger generation and together we were able to make a song and dance about it.

The result is our RAVING PENSIONERS FLASHMOB.

It is now uploaded to our You Tube channel and is available for all to view. Please click below to watch it now.”
