Stockport Council's new adult social care website 'My Care, My Choice': A business case for service co-design


Performance indicators

 

  • Since going 'live' the website has received over 100,000 hits.

  • Contacts, enquires and observations at the contact centre for the period have gone down by 29%, freeing up resources.

  • Whilst the telephone remains the main method of contacting Stockport, it is pleasing to note that email contacts have doubled (albeit from only 1% to 2%) reducing phone enquiries, showing a positive trend even within the short period since launch of the My Care, My Choice website.

  • The number of ‘abandoned’ and ‘closed’ contacts have been reduced by 38.4%. Previously people dropped out midway through the assessment process due to issues such as not being informed that there was a charge for services.   

  • The number of enquiries and observations received by the Contact Centre that lead to a referral to the ‘back office’ (i.e. social work teams) has been reduced by 36%.
