The Joined Up Care Derbyshire Dynamic Support Pathway (DSP) brings together the services who provide help and support to children, young people and adults with a learning disability, autism or both, who are struggling with their health and wellbeing whilst living in the community, with the key focus being on prevention, early identification and early intervention.
The purpose of the Dynamic Support Pathway (DSP) is to make sure that people with learning disabilities and/or autism, and their carers receive good and timely support, and respond quickly to any problems and concerns which may lead to a crisis.
The DSP provides a place where agencies communicate and work together to develop an action plan to support people using various levels of multi-agency coordination and review. The DSP also helps to connect people to appropriate services.
In Derby and Derbyshire, all agencies and services that care for people with learning disabilities and/or autism use a digital database, called the Dynamic Support Register (DSR). The DSR helps identify those who need support the most, so they don’t have to go to a mental health hospital, if this is not the best thing for them.
