Supported Housing Classification System

Overview

1. This is a classification system for the supported housing system in the United Kingdom.  It is a “Dewey Decimal”-like system designed to categorise all aspects of supported housing with a high degree of precision and granularity. 

Key aspects of this classification system

2. Here are some key aspects of this classification system:

  1. Hierarchical Structure: it uses a hierarchical structure where broader categories are at the top, and more specific subcategories are nested below.
  2. Decimal Notation: The system uses decimal numbers to represent this hierarchy, with each level adding a decimal place (e.g., 120.01, 120.01.01). For instance, “Mental Health Needs” (120.01) is a category, and a specific diagnosis like schizophrenia and arising needs is a subcategory (120.01.01) .
  3. Focus on Function: The classification prioritises the function of each element within the supported housing system rather than just its name.
  4. Expandability: The system is designed to be expandable, allowing for the addition of new categories and subcategories without disrupting the existing structure.
  5. Relationships as Categories: Recognizing the importance of relationships within the system, it includes specific categories for different types of relationships, such as funding, regulation, and referral.
  6. Specificity to Supported Housing: The categories and numbers within the system are specifically tailored to reflect the unique features of supported housing.

3. Examples of categories include “Housing Benefit” (410.01), which is a means-tested benefit for rent, the “Regulator of Social Housing (RSH)” (510.02), which regulates housing associations, “Commissioning” (810.01), the process of local authorities contracting for care services, and “Safeguarding” (960.01).

4. Current Application and Future Scope: Currently, the system only applies to England, but the goal is for the final product to be applicable to the entire United Kingdom and also be jurisdictionally specific.

5. Potential Uses: This classification system could be used for various purposes, including organising information, developing databases, conducting research, and creating effective visual representations of the supported housing sector.

6. In essence, this classification system aims to provide a robust, detailed, and logically organised framework for understanding the complex interrelationships within the supported housing system. 

The Main Classes of the Classification System

7. The main classes of the supported housing classification system are as follows:

100: Individuals & Needs

8. This category encompasses the people who need and use supported housing, their characteristics, and the underlying reasons why they require these services. This includes both individual circumstances and broader social factors contributing to the need for supported housing.

200: Supported Housing Provision

9. This class covers the range of accommodation options, providers, and management practices involved in delivering supported housing services.

300: Care & Support Services

10. This category details the services provided to residents of supported housing to meet their assessed needs, promote their independence, and improve their well-being. It includes a wide range of activities, from personal care to tenancy sustainment support.

400: Funding & Finance

11. This class focuses on the financial resources, mechanisms, and flows that support the provision of supported housing, including funding for accommodation, care and support, and capital development.

500: Regulation & Oversight

12. This category includes the bodies, processes, legal frameworks, and policy guidance that govern, monitor, and influence the quality, safety, and financial viability of supported housing in England.

600: Referral & Access

13. This class describes the overall system and processes by which individuals who need supported housing are identified, assessed for eligibility (both for housing and for support), and connected with appropriate accommodation and support services.

700: Outcomes & Impact

14. This category focuses on the changes, benefits, or consequences (positive, negative, or neutral) that result from providing supported housing, measured at both the individual and system levels.

800: Relationships & Interactions

15. This class covers the web of connections, collaborations, and communication pathways between different individuals, organisations, and processes within the supported housing system.

900: System Improvement

16. This category includes the overall set of processes and initiatives aimed at enhancing the effectiveness, efficiency, quality, and outcomes of the supported housing system.

17. These main classes provide a high-level structure for the detailed classification system, with each class further divided into more specific subcategories using decimal notation.
