It was reported last week that G.P.s are to take collective action which may see them decline non contractual tasks. This will undoubtedly have a knock-on effect on services that G.P.s sometimes undertake such as mental capacity assessments. (1/3)
Whether you require a COP3 reports for a deputyship application, or a more complex mental capacity assessment for Court of Protection proceedings, we have got you covered. Send me a DM, email or phone us using the details in the comments and we will be pleased to assist you.
We have a network of experiences associate Social Workers across England and Wales and can be instructed to undertake mental capacity assessments from the (relatively) routine, to the very complex. (2/3)
There was no specific mention of social care in the King's speech, I hope that it goes without saying that the reforms to the NHS will naturally include social care. Great to hear that mental health services to young people will be improved and the MH Act will be reformed.
When is a social care report not a social care report? #SimplySocialWork #SEND #SENDTribunal #SpecialEducationalNeeds #EducationLaw #Solicitors
@SEN_advice 9-10 months between FE deadline and hearing isn't great for expert reports. Questions are raised, circumstances change, addendum reports are required.
... and social care, please. It is also very broken. #Socialcare #NHS #SimplySocialWork #DHSC
Straight to work on fixing the broken NHS and making it fit for the future. Catch up on @WesStreeting's first week as Health and Social Care Secretary 🔽
Are you attending the @ForumDeputies conference in Leeds in September? We are, and cannot wait to: 1. See you 2. Share these beauties with you 3. Listen to the great speakers I can neither confirm nor deny whether the legends that are @StandOutSocksUK have been involved.
Are you considering a move into a care home; for yourself, a loved one or client? It's not all doom and gloom and can be a really positive step if you find the right one. It can help alleviate loneliness and help people make new friends. #SimplySocialWork #CareHomes #Solicitors
LIFE Wirral Statement: "...five members of staff have been suspended and we can now come to a quick conclusion..." I think the issues run deeper than 5 rogue members of staff, doesn't it? It's a toxic culture that creates this. lifewirral.com/?fbclid=IwZXh0…
👇🏽 this!
The public service Alex offers to the social care/health/ legal community deserves this in abundance. Let's get Alex to 10,000 and I highly recommend his websites and shedinars, a vital resource 🙌👇
@SEN_advice That's right, the failings of the organisation is @BBCPanorama's fault, not the organisation! 🙄
