Scottish Community Care Statistics 2000

Expenditure on Senior Management and purchasing increased from £24m (4 per cent of total community care expenditure) in 1995 to £51m (7 per cent of total community care expenditure) in 2000.

Between 1990 and 2000, total expenditure on nursing and residential care increased from £125.8m to £362m (190 per cent). Nursing and residential care accounted for 35 per cent of total community care expenditure in 1990 and 47 per cent in 2000.

Total net expenditure on day care between 1990 and 2000 followed an upward trend, with the exception of 1998 and 2000 where it fell slightly. The proportion of community care spending attributed to day care remained constant at 17 per cent until 1994 where it dropped by 1 per cent. In 1995 it dropped a further 2 per cent to 14 per cent where it remained until 2000 (13 per cent).

Expenditure on home care increased from £116m in 1990 to £130m in 2000. Home care accounted for 32 per cent of the community care budget in 1990, reducing to 17 per cent in 2000.

Table 7.4 presents the total net expenditure on community care for Scotland in 2000, broken down by local authority.

For Scotland as a whole, the majority of community care expenditure is on older people - 39 per cent in 2000. The second highest share is on services for all community care client groups (32 per cent).

£187 was spent on community care per head of population over 16 years of age in Scotland in 2000. This figure ranged from £396 in Eileanan Siar to £116 in East Dunbartonshire. Chart 2 illustrates how this rate differs for each local authority.
