This Workforce development framework for care co-ordinators has been developed to:

• set clear and consistent standards for care co-ordinators
• demonstrate the benefits of care co-ordinators working in health and care
• provide information about the training, support, supervision, and continuous professional development (CPD) needed to enable them to succeed
• support the development of a strong and capable workforce of care co-ordinators
• support improved quality and consistency of care co-ordination and reduce variation in outcomes and access standards.
