Other stakeholders including clinical mangers, people familiar with primary care were consulted as well. It focuses on the use of emerging technologies within adult social care in England, including Artificial Intelligence (AI) application and its usage among top managements team and workers of small and micro social care providers to improve productivity growth and long-term output per social worker. Therefore, this written evidence suggests policy implication focusing on following questions.
