Not news at all unfortunately. Mind one of my managers with this level of emotional intelligent empathy did get an MBE so the laugh is still on us.

Got the medication ,let’s see if that works .

As a social worker who came to the UK from another country l am so appalled and in short i can say i rather go back to my country where SOCIAL work is social work ,where you work with pride,joy and dignity .No wonder there is massive shortages of social workers -Redflag cause who on earth want to do this and still be sane.So stressful and many sleepless nights working and there is no work life balance.If its been like this for years whats being done now to change it-NOTHING.
l have to put my mental wellbeing first

I would love this to be the case. However, when the court gives deadlines for statements and care plans to be filed, it is the social worker who has to explain why this has not been complied with. Unfortunately, the court is not interested in lack of capacity, it just wants to see no delay due to lack of correct paperwork.
