focused on obtaining the facility to the highest level possible (Parker 2018). The business will
be accommodating 50 vulnerable residents that are normally placed in the service and getting

maximum of 50 guests living in the facility based on the one-time pre admission fee (Kuratko
2016). The total cost arising from the employee payroll would stand approximately £400,000
in the first year of operation. While the total other expenditure for the first year of operation
is anticipated to be £14, 59,335. These expenses mainly include the maintenance, security,
staffing, license etc.
The business anticipates slow growth in the span of two years during the first year of
operation. The business anticipate to make a surplus of £20,94,265 from the first year of its
operation. As the new gusts would be admitted to the facility, the profitability is anticipated
to increase to £21,17,931 in the second year of its operation. While moving into the third year
of operations the business is anticipated to be profitable as well as long as it has full capacity

Policy Context
Health and Social Care Act 2012
The health and social care bill was introduced in 2011 which was the biggest bill of
health in NHS. This health act discusses about the responsibilities of the citizens relating to
health which is primarily based on the health and services (Burns and Dewhurst 2016). This
act was highly controversial which helps the NHS to provide certain response about the
pressure on the budget of NHS. This law is very expensive yet effective in the health and
social care (Barringer 2015). This act helps the empowerment of the patients as well as
focuses on the health of the public. It is an act which was introduced to take steps regarding
inequalities of health. The changes in the authorities has been made by this act and the main
purpose of this act is the advancement of the equality into the business.
The social acts helps the authorities and the health sector to consider, environment
and social welfare of the services. The act helps to create social value which helps to reduce
the inequalities of health through action on the social health care and thereby assists the
employment and housing. It also helps to reduce the inequality in the local people which
helps to improve their health and therefore diminish the need of health and other services
(Shapiro and Hanouna 2019). It helped the patients with the healthcare of their own and
empowering their voice. The act will also help to give focus on the public health of the
people by putting the clinicians at the commissioning. This act helps the healthcare and
residential homes by providing effective law regarding health and social care.
The Care Act 2014
The Care Act was introduced on 2014 in the parliament of UK. This act safeguard the
adults by encouraging the caregivers. This law was created along with other legislations

which was made on social care in UK. The acts helps the adults who are neglected and
abused and whose voices are not heard (Madura 2020). This act helps the adults and old
people who is vulnerable in safeguarding their own. This act empowers the adults as well as
protect them regarding any healthcare policies. This law helps the adults with prevention
from most abuses and therefore protects them from long term damage whether
psychologically or physically. This law also helps the vulnerable adults with local service
and communities so that the authorities can quickly take action regarding this matter.
Residential Care home will safeguard the adults by following the act as well as
provide them with security. It will also help them to communicate with their families and
therefore establishing good communications (Finkler, Smith and Calabrese 2018). This act
influences the old people also it provides control to them as well as support them where they
need. This act discussed about how the social care units should provide their service to the
people. The laws talks about the mental health, law and the social policy and care of the
people. The law significantly impacts on the welfare of the people which majorly improves
their quality of living which will be the primary goal of the residential home.
The Better Care Fund 2014:
The better care fund was introducing during the year 2013 in June as the part of
spending round. This act is useful for the business to offer an opportunity to transform the
local services where people are offered with better integrated care and support. It is useful in
encompassing the substantial degree of funding to assist the local areas in administering the
pressure and enhance the long-term sustainability (Burtonshaw-Gunn 2017). This fund is
important in the current business as it allows integration of agenda forward at a scale and
speed by acting as the significant catalyst for change.

8BUSINESS PLAN OF HEALTH AND RESIDENTIAL CARE
The Better Care fund offers an opportunity to enhance the live of some of the highly
vulnerable people in the society. It is useful in providing them with control, placing them at
the centre of their own care and providing them necessary support. By doing so, people that
are highly vulnerable would be able to get better service and quality of life. The Better Care
fund is useful in providing support to those people that need appropriate care, at the correct
place and at the correct time. It also includes noteworthy expansion of care in the community
setting as well (Storey 2016). The present business will be enacting the Better Care Fund on
the clinical commissioning groups and councils that are already doing integrated care with
the help of community budgets and understanding the patient and service user experience.
The present business looks forward to use the fund in a manner that it provides
support to the adult social care service in the locality where it serves as this will help in
offering vulnerable people with enhanced health benefit. Nevertheless, anything beyond the
broad condition, the business would offer flexibility in service for the local areas to ascertain
how this investment in the social care service is better used (Nambisan 2017). In agreement
with the responsibility of the business under the Health and Social Care Act, an added
condition regarding the transfer is that councils and clinical commissioning groups would
regard to the joint strategic need assessment for the local populations and the current business
plan emphasis on both the health and social care in how it can use the funds.

The business is committed to working and indulging with the service users, patients,
families, friend’s carers and the public a wide variety of manner. Assuring that the views of
the people are heard at every levels and across every part of the trust it is very much
necessary for creating and offering better health as well as care service (Light, Bhachu and
Karageorgis 2017). The service users and people that look after someone can get involve in

The aspects of care mainly correlates with the good patient’s experience. Patents
usually wants to be listened in order to obtain a good explanation from the professionals. In
order to have their questions answered, it is necessary to share in terms of decisions and
should be treated with empathy and compassion (Lipset 2018). These type of aspects are
normally found in the individual consultation and team work. However, the arrangement
relating to integrated care should be very much crystal clear regarding the roles and contact
which numerous professionals would have service users.

care and even transition. The current can only achieve this through planning and co-

ordination. They might not need organizational integration. By effectively deploying multi-
professional resources, the co-ordinated system of care must be better able to deliver the
other things which is required by the patients (Meyer, Neck and Meeks 2017). This involves
fast access, effective treatment, respect for their preference, support for the self-care and the
involvement of family. For those people that want integration is mainly relevant, particularly
for those that want long-term conditions, constantly say that they want system to two
combine two things at one place;
a. Knowledge of the patient/service user: This includes the circumstances of their
home, lifestyle, views and preferences, confidences needed to care for themselves and
administer their conditions along with their health status.

and all the required options for treating, managing and reducing them, together with
the knowledge of all the obtainable support services (Cooper 2017).
The present business plan knows that they need to identify the wide variety of
professionals and support service but it also wants to establish a single trusted point of liaison
to which it can resort whenever necessary.
Besides this the residential home care also holds the intention of attracting the
potential customers with the help of marketing campaigns which will help in assuring that
there is higher visibility for the business in the target audience. The business has set up
feedback collection system that is simply based on the suggestion system (Cooper and Folta
2017). The feedback suggestion system has numerous statements which the patrons are asked
to rate from the scale of 1 to 5. The feedback system would also contain the open ended
questions which would allow the customers to freely offer the constructive criticism or praise.
The residential care homes would simply work hard to apply the reasonable suggestions so

which their suggestion would be valued.
The business here would also approach as much of their contacts in their work as this
will allow them to know their availability while carrying out their service (Roberts et al.
2016). The business here would acquire the reliable set of database in order to produce the
leads to provider higher customer value with the help of highly customized and personalized
approach for their product and service offerings, process of distribution that are tailored to
satisfy their needs of customers.
