Market position statement

Market Position Statement is an opportunity to share our understanding of the demand for, and supply of care and support services in Oxfordshire with our current and potential providers.

In the 2024 update of the Market Position Statement (docx format, 185 KB), we set out our strategic vision, the Oxfordshire Way, which means supporting people to live well and independently within their communities, remaining fit and healthy for as long as possible, and how we can work together with social care providers to offer diverse, affordable, quality, and innovative services to improve how adult social care works in Oxfordshire.

Quality improvement

We have a duty to ensure the care and support that a person receives meets their needs is safe and of good quality. Where these support needs are met by external providers, Oxfordshire County Council will monitor their performance and work with them to make improvements.

This document outlines how the council monitors services and the organisations that provide them, to ensure people receive high quality care.
