Using Case Studies to Evidence Outcomes in Social Care
🔍 Why Case Studies Matter in Tenders
Commissioners want reassurance that your service delivers real, measurable outcomes for the people you support. While data is important, case studies bring these outcomes to life — turning numbers into stories and showing how your service makes a difference on an individual level.
📋 What Makes a Strong Case Study?
- Clearly outline the individual’s starting point and support needs
- Describe the intervention or approach your service provided
- Highlight the positive outcomes achieved, linked to wellbeing, independence, or quality of life
- Connect the outcomes to your service values, CQC standards, and commissioner priorities
- Keep it anonymised but authentic — no need to use real names
Short, focused case studies often have more impact than long narratives.
💡 Examples of Good Practice
For domiciliary care, a case study might show how your service supported someone to regain independence after hospital discharge, reducing reliance on care. For learning disability services, it might show how communication tools improved engagement and reduced behaviours of concern.
