Mr Corbyn - yet another Politician who has no clue as to what is needed within the Social Care sector, it is not whether homes for example are privately owned or in local authority ownership, what is wrong with these Politicians, oh yes of course they don't 'live in the real world'.
For all our well educated and very clever Politicians here is a simple answer. Provide adequate funding for Social Care, and don't tell us there are x thousands or millions of pounds being invested or promised. Secondly invest in the hardworking staff (our Members) who work within the sector, recognise them as a profession and value them, including with pay that reflects a profession.
The solution is simple, but of course Politicians of all backgrounds simply use issues like this to try and buy votes at any given forthcoming election.
Having said this, there is of course also a need to remove the CQC and replace it with a body that is more about improving (in a supportive manner) quality than simply adding more pressure onto Registered Managers.
Lets face it there is something fundamentally flawed with the CQC when they take a year to provide an inspection report on a residential care home, a year, incompetence of massive proportions.
