The Health and Social Care Information Centre have published measures from the  Adult Social Care Outcomes Framework (ASCOF), England 2012-13, Final Release at: http://www.hscic.gov.uk/pubs/adusoccareof1213fin 

This report contains the final figures for all of the 2012-13 ASCOF measures for England. It supersedes the provisional ASCOF release in July 2013 and provides further information to the initial findings on final data published in November 2013. The Adult Social Care Outcomes Framework is used both locally and nationally to set priorities for care and support, measure progress, and strengthen transparency and accountability. It encompasses four domains:

- Enhancing quality of life for people with care and support needs.

- Delaying and reducing the need for care and support.

- Ensuring people have a positive experience of care and support.

- Safeguarding people whose circumstances make them vulnerable and protecting them from avoidable harm.
