Recommendation 61

61 Accepted Paragraph: 162

Evaluate the nationwide impact of Right Care Right Person model, publishing first findings annually.

Recommendation
The Right Care Right Person model appears to have been successful in reducing demand on police in Humberside. We recommend that, as it is adopted across the country, the Home Office carefully evaluate the impact of its adoption on both policing time and overall performance, publishing its first findings a year on from the adoption of the National Partnership Agreement.
Government Response Summary
The government accepts the recommendation and is conducting a joint evaluation of the Right Care, Right Person (RCRP) model with DHSC, covering impacts on police time and health/social care, with findings due for publication in Spring 2024.
Paragraph Reference: 162
Government Response Accepted
HM Government Accepted
The Home Office is working closely with Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) on a joint evaluation of RCRP, including both the impacts on police time and the implementation of RCRP from a health and social care perspective. Findings will feed into an implementation evaluation report due to be completed in Spring 2024, which we intend to publish.
