About us

Despite the challenges that Adult Social Care has faced within the last 12 months, our approach in Buckinghamshire has not been to take shelter and wait for the storm to pass. Instead, we have chosen totransform and restructure Adult Social Care so we can respond to a crisis as well as build for the future. We have created more roles in Social Work and Occupational Therapy; we are adapting to work much more closely with the community andsupport people near to where they live; we have developed a newcareer progression framework to encourage staff ambition and development; finally, to establish the conditions to deliveroutstanding practice, we have reduced the numbers that managers supervise and the caseloads the team have, to allow for more contact with our residents.

Initiated in 2019, our strength-based practice model, Better Lives, has been improving outcomes linked to independence, developing social connections, and improving areas that are important to the residents we support.

We are looking for motivated, ambitious and inspiring people to join us on our journey.
