Quality of life carers

Why this fact is important:

This measures carers' social care-related quality of life

Things to note:

This measure is taken from the Adult Social Care Outcomes Framework (ASCOF) and published by HSCIC. This data combines individual responses to six questions in the Carers' Survey measuring different outcomes related to overall quality of life. A higher score is better.

Where n/a appears, this indicates that there is no data available for this measure. Where n/a appears across all ASCOF measures for a council, this indicates that the council does not have responsibility for adult social services. To find the council with responsibility for adult social services in your area, please search by your postcode.

This data is taken from Health and Social Care Information Centre for Annual

Further information

This measure gives an overall indication of the reported outcomes for carers: it does not, at present, identify the specific contribution of a local authority's adult social care services towards these outcomes. Only a sample of carers in each authority has been surveyed. This measure is out of a maximum possible score of 12.

You can read more about the Adult Social Care Outcomes Framework at the ASCOF website.
