Darlington Borough Council (24 012 694)
Statement Upheld Assessment and care plan 24-Jul-2025
Summary: Miss Y complained the Council failed to take a full assessment of Mr X’s needs which led to it wrongly deciding he did not have any eligible care and support needs. She also complained the Council closed Mr X’s file without notice and without any consideration on how it would impact on Mr X’s wellbeing. We find the Council was at fault for failing to consider Mr X’s communication needs before it closed his file. It was also at fault for failing to properly engage Miss Y in the assessment process. These faults caused Mr X upset and shock. The Council has agreed to our recommendation to apologise to Mr X.

Statement Upheld Charging 24-Jul-2025

The Council agreed to apologise, pay a financial remedy to Mr X and Mr Y for distress, and reconsider its deprivation of assets case for Mr Y. It will also deliver training to its staff about deprivation of assets and ensure its financial assessment appeals process aligns with its published policies.
