Assisted Transport Policy
Purpose
To set out an appendix to the Adult Social Care Assisted Transport Policy that was endorsed at the Community Wellbeing, Health & Care Portfolio meeting held on 4 November 2024.
RECOMMENDED that the Cabinet Member endorse
1. The development of a charging policy framework to charge a flat rate for 'assisted transport', for residents who cannot meet their own transport needs and have no other means of accessing a service without transport being provided/arranged by the council, ensuring that residents are treated equitably.
2. The move from the existing practice of re-charging a subsidised rate to external bodies funding Portsmouth residents to attend in-house day services and introduce a full cost recovery model.
