Starting on Monday 8 June 2015 we will have a three-part Integrated Social Care Direct service:
- Social Care Direct will still be the single entry point for residents and professionals, contactable via telephone 020 8359 5000 or email socialcaredirect@barnet.gov.uk
- Social Care Direct will triage calls and, where necessary, forward cases which need urgent or emergency attention to the Urgent Response Team.
- We also have an Assessment, Enablement and Review Team to arrange enablement and conduct support plan reviews.
The new structure will enable us to provide Barnet residents with:
- improved information and advice to support their choice and independence
- a more effective and efficient response service, where residents only have to ‘tell their story’ once.
