The viability of care homes
Overview
In its most recent annual assessment, The Care Quality Commission’s (CGC) observation was that most of the care in England that it had seen pre pandemic was of good quality but there was little evidence of any improvement over the latest period.
Access to care and staffing issues are continuing to create challenges across all care settings, with geographic disparities resulting in a differing quality of experience of care depending on where the service user lives; and that these experiences are often determined by how well different parts of local systems work together.
In adult social care specifically, CQC Market Oversight study of February 2021 stated that funding and workforce issues continue to contribute to the fragility of the sector with providers continuing to exit the market.
The Government announced in September 2021 that it has committed to investing £5.4 billion in health and social care, this includes £500 million across three years to support the adult social care workforce.
