Responding to the report today (Wednesday) from the Public Accounts Committee that adult social care in England is in a “precarious state”, UNISON assistant general secretary Christina McAnea said:
“Low-paid staff are propping up a care system that has no funding, no strategy and no long-term solutions.
“The crisis in adult social care is not a warning for the future, it’s happening across the country right now.
“The government’s one-track mind over Brexit means ministers are ignoring the care disaster that’s right under their noses.”
