I worked in the care system for 8 years, part time, while the kids were little. I can tell you it's an absolute shit show, with some service users (horrible Phrase) not even getting a call, or agencies shoe horning in calls between calls and not letting the client know that the carers are going to be late. Zero hour, not enough staff, shit pay, too much work and a tender system that sees the care going to the lowest bidder. It's a shit show, and has been for years, and the poor carers are the ones who take the brunt of the frustration from families and clients. Try telling a client that you weren't there for 8am because you went to see two other people first, this after they have had that slot for a long time. I'd be blaming Drakeford as well if it saves me an hour of grief when i turn up
