Questions from the Scottish Government Social Care:
Understanding need, unmet need, prevention, and early intervention in social care
How will adult social care need change into the future given population changes? These kinds of population changes could include: increasing levels of multimorbidity (including in younger adults), changes in household structures / access to a carer (e.g. single person households, older people without children), and housing supply (e.g. rented accommodation which cannot be adapted).
