When does a care need stop being a social care need and become a health care need? Why does it feel like a constant battle with our partners in health when we are #HEALTHANDSOCIALCARE #Partnership
Wow! Wow! Wow! This is the most incredible @UKLabour video I have ever seen. It completely eviscerates 12 years of conservative Government. And what is so astonishing about it is it’s all done by Conservative MP’s! It should be playing on a loop
Congratulations to Carol Shanahan. I remember the most selfless act (in a selfish game) in the Covid season when Carol voted to end the season whilst in a strong position to gain promotion . This was done in solidarity with the remaining clubs who couldn’t afford to play. ❤️
You know what, I am absolutely sick and tired of professionals not getting MCA and treating professionals who do get it, who study it in detail and who apply it lawfully and respectfully as if they are somehow wrong. Enough.

Arrogant and offensive. Can you imagine having to work with these truth twisters?
@Justacarehomeg1 And yet this bias is built into the structures and cultures of health and social care from wages, education, oversight etc. But these issues have come from a long trajectory embedded in acute services being seen as a higher order and it will take a major paradigm to shift.

I'm back, hopefully, embarking upon a phased return to work after my operation in April' 21; complications & 20 months recovery journey! I've further to go, but worked SO hard to reach this point & am optimistic about my chances🤗 Thanks to all who believed & those that doubted❗
Tonight I performed to two very confused Dutch people in the front row. Apparently they don’t have any highly sexual, disabled, lesbian comedians in the Netherlands. Weird.
If Section 42 is not met then it isn’t ‘Adult Safeguarding’. It might still be a crime, a risk, a safety issue or even abuse. If we continue to get this wrong we ‘other’ people, we do a disservice to those who need Adult Safeguarding help & we very often infringe on rights.
@AnnaBoniface We don’t have a ‘health Secretary’, the position is Health & Social Care Secretary. So why NHS or health experience, rather than Social Services or social care experience? Im not saying they should necessarily have either, I’d just welcome competence to do the job.
