↘️ sector news ↘️

CQC ‘State of Care’ report uncovers sector pressures, highlights workforce and capacity issues, sector strain, plus persistent inequalities in care

Five key actions:
️↘️ Strengthen community care capacity by investing in local and community services to reduce reliance on hospital care
↘️ Tackle workforce shortages by developing a long-term, integrated workforce plan across health and social care that addresses pay, conditions, and training to improve retention
↘️ Reduce inequalities to ensure that people with learning disabilities, autism, dementia, and those in deprived areas have equitable access to high-quality care
↘️ Support integrated care systems by giving them the resources and authority to coordinate care effectively between NHS, social care, and voluntary sectors
↘️ Promote digital innovation to improve data sharing and introduce digital tools that support joined-up care, efficiency, and accountability

The Care Quality Commission has released a new State of Care report on the persistent challenges facing the social care sector

Health advice and info to keep in mind for loved ones at home

Covid-19 can still make some people seriously ill. From November 2024 to January 2025, around 13,000 people were admitted to hospital with the virus.

The NHS offers a free vaccine for those at risk of becoming very ill from Covid-19.

This vaccine is known as the Autumn booster. It is available to fewer groups of people than in 2024.

Feelgood Feedback for Friday ...

I feel truly blessed to have found Dinah and her super team at Staffing Plus. Living four hours away from my elderly Mum is challenging, however Dinah has been able to take some of the anxiety and worry away because I know Mum is now being well looked after and is in very good hands.

🌿💚 Garden Centres Are a Hit With Carers & Older Adults 💚🌿

It’s no surprise that garden centre visits are a favourite outing!

They’re calm, welcoming places that offer joy and respite for carers and the people they support. Here’s why we love them:

🌸 Relaxing & Accessible – Easy to get around, peaceful, and perfect for a stress-free trip.
🌼 Nature Boost – Bright colours, fresh scents, and beautiful plants lift the mood instantly.
☕ A Lovely Social Moment – A cosy café stop turns the outing into a real treat.
🪴 Gentle Stimulation – Plenty to see, touch, and chat about—great for memory and conversation.
🛍️ A Bit of Shopping Fun – Plants, gifts, home items… lots to browse without the rush.
💛 A Sense of Purpose – Choosing a plant or two helps older adults feel involved and independent.
🏡 Nostalgia – Many have lifelong memories of gardening, making the visit familiar and comforting.

The other month we were out and about at The Old Railway Line and their displays are like an Autumn grotto ablaze in orange. They also took some of our care at home leaflets, so many thanks to the reception team who were very friendly and welcoming.

Simple trips bring happiness, connection, and fresh air 🌞💐
