Great day with SSSC & NES Leading 2 Change discussing supervision. Good to hear my experience inspired or resonated with those present. I left with questions for my development of effective supervision practice - how to record meaningfully & how to ensure staff feel the benefit.
Today we march with #ProvidersUnite because social care matters. We’re standing together for fair funding, a valued workforce, + a system that works for those who receive care & those who provide it. It’s time for real action and real change. Care isn’t optional. It’s essential.
This week’s blog is a reflection on the failure of both @scotgov and @GOVUK to prioritise #socialcare and what it means for those who use #care and #support services. Failing to properly resource care is a failure of #dignity. #ProvidersUnite scottishcare.org/a-betrayal-of-…
“We’ve never really valued care or carers. We don’t treat family carers properly and don’t give them support when they’re struggling, and we don’t value care workers.” Thank you @EdwardJDavey for raising the social care crisis in this powerful interview youtube.com/watch?v=aI6yyl…
This new research on the #carecrisis in Scotland from @scottishcare is deeply concerning. #Carehomes at risk of closing, people desperate to move in, lots of space but no money to pay for them from local and national government. @scotgov

(1/5) We partnered with @SkyNews, @scottishcare and @careforumwales on a new survey revealing the stark reality of #socialcare cuts across England, Scotland and Wales. Here's what we found... news.sky.com/story/it-feels…
📣@scottishcare & @SkyNews survey finds over 80% of councils have cut care packages in Scotland, leaving vulnerable individuals without proper support. Urgent action is needed. Read our media statement: buff.ly/4jz92kp #CareCrisis #SocialCare #CareAboutCare
Thinking of all the thousands of dedicated staff who will despite #StormÉowyn be out today delivering necessary care and support to people in their own homes or in #carehomes. Thank you for your professionalism. Keep safe. #homecare #socialcare #careaboutcare.
