Councils: We really struggle to find ways to improve engagement & co-production uptake for social care so we can hear people's views. 😭

Us: You undertake so called 'person-centred' assessments / reviews for all potential & existing social care users. Are you not listening? 🤔

[Barnet Forum for Independent Living @BarnetForum]

Read this important letter from our brave @BarnetCouncil mental health social work team who are feeling the brunt of our council's refusal to acknowledge a fundamental problem in social care for both service users and workforce. We stand with them fully.

@barnetcouncil claim all Care Act requirements are being met. Wellbeing areas set out in the Act include dignity, physical/emotional wellbeing, choice/control and protection from abuse and neglect. The inhumane and degrading instances in this piece tell a very different story...

This is disgraceful and what makes this even more abhorrent is that @NorfolkCC are paying double what she's asking for for the privilege of denying Christine her rights! Read Christine's case study on our website https://t.co/dy0N2Mr6j0

We must expose the TRUTH!
