Adult social care Market Position Statement (MPS)

A MPS contains information and analysis that is of benefit to both current and prospective providers of adult social care within Warwickshire. It summarises supply and demand in the local authority area or sub-region, and signals business opportunities within the care market in that area.

The suite of five Market Position Statements, serves as a cornerstone for both current and prospective providers in Warwickshire, offering vital insights into the dynamics of supply and demand within adult social care.
