Well said Julia. I started out in home care in 1987 and finished as a commissioner a few decades later.

The best and most skillful thing I ever did was to bath and shave an ex-service man and war veteran who didn’t know who I was from one minute to the next.

The next best thing was to challenge the ridiculous idea that procure procedures and contracting could ever specify the needs of vulnerable people.

If truth were told most of the contracting and procurement for domiciliary care is unenforceable ie null and void.

And, if another truth were told the outsourcing of home care was to avoid the liabilities of increased pay and settlement because of historic sex discrimination.

We are walking into a serious recruitment crisis.

Ofcourse emotes need tax payers to help them bridge the difference (£1.09) Over to.you ADASS.

Care workers should be getting £15.00 per hour as a minimum, with domiciliary care workers being paid for their travel time as well as for the fuel and the wear and tear on their vehicles. They should not have to log in and out, but should be trusted to carry out the work they are paid for in the time they are allotted. We all need to raise the profile of carers both in homes and in the community and pay them what they are worth to us and to our loved ones.
