Verbatim
“This addresses an unfair rule that can leave carers worse off simply because they work a little longer or receive a pay rise.”
“We want a Budget that recognises these everyday needs and invests in support before people reach crisis.”
“Quality needs more than a national name. It needs sufficient staff, good training, effective safeguarding, reliable oversight and funding that reflects the full cost of delivering safe care.”
“Adult social care is not simply an extension of the NHS. The NHS primarily diagnoses and treats illness. Social care helps people live their lives -- with dignity, choice, relationships, independence and purpose.”
“SERVE exists to support local people, so it is important that we remain open, accessible and prepared to listen. These monthly conversations will give people a direct opportunity to tell me what matters to them, share their experiences and suggest how SERVE and its partners could make an even greater difference.”
“The Casey Commission presents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to rethink adult social care. We welcome the Commission and the Government's commitment to listening to those delivering services and those who rely upon them every day.”
