Note: The Council does not record day services by type. The above list are providers where the majority of people whose support is paid for by the Council have a Primary Support Requirement (PSR) of “Learning Disability Support”. Our social care database does not have separate category for people with autism. Those with autism with a learning disability are recorded as having a PSR of “Learning Disability Support”.

- Details of the systems, monitoring arrangements, quality assurance measures, and expectations your local authority has in place to review and ensure the quality-of-service provision and the experience of individuals accessing day services.
Nottinghamshire County Council operates a comprehensive contract management and quality assurance framework for commissioned adult social care services, including community-based and day services.
