Parent and Carer experiences of moving to Adult social care: What families are told
Please Report the Errrors?
My projecting is,
is,
I've got two hats in Access Social as well,
so,
um,
half of my time is just on a Gloucestershire project.
So we,
I'm funded halftime and a
caseworker funded halftime.
Um,
And we'd be,
we're just into our second sort of 3 year block of funding from Palmwood.
And it's been really amazing in that it's
quite
they're big into sort of learning,
not
setting strict
outcomes.
So
we've been able to learn and evolve,
if you like.
So,
um,
I've been trying to find ways of
reaching groups who might not.
Even though they've
got the right to social care,
um,
or might be less likely to pick up a
phone line or.
You know,
argue their case sort of thing.
You know,
there's a bit of early help,
there's a couple of clubs that they can go to.
But,
um,
to give you a short break,
but that's it,
um,
you don't get seen by a social worker.
Um,
and then
those that do
struggle and need social work support,
you're made to feel that it's because.
There's the safeguarding risk
or that you're not,
you're the one that's not coping or.
All those sorts of things.
So your relationship with social care is quite distrustful and
damaged before you even step into adult services.
So many parents don't want anything to do with social care.
Cause they're frightened of them.
Yeah.
Um,
others have just been told over and over again.
You know,
well you,
you
basically you chose to have children,
get on with it.
