CCFTV Director speaking at this year's Care Show on Safety Monitoring in Care Homes
The Care Show, NEC Birmingham Oct 2021
Director CCFTV, Jayne Connery, joining the debate supporting the need for safety monitoring in all UK dementia care homes
This year CCFTV has offered support to more families and care staff than ever before. Our attendance at meetings has often resulted in the delivery of positive outcomes for families when original expectations were low in terms of resolution. We have continued to visit care homes to meet residents and understand their concerns about a service. Being a voice for vulnerable people remains at the heart of what we do whether that be families, the residents themselves or both.
As an organisation we have taken up numerous invitations to speak at care shows, continued to comment on national social care issues and assisted with raising much-needed funds for dementia research. We have sought to also rally support from care leaders and MP’s in the belief that all stakeholders together can bring about the change the care home market needs.

Families and care staff remind us daily that in their view radical changes are required within the care sector. Improving safety, promoting greater transparency in dementia elderly care, financially valuing carers for the excellent skills they have and for the job they do and providing greater protection for whistleblowers are persistent themes that remain unaddressed.
CCFTV understands more than ever the challenges the sector faces but we want to reflect on the positives also. We have heard of exceptional care stories both from care workers and families which is truly thrilling, as at the centre of these heartwarming experiences are the vulnerable elderly people we all serve.
CCFTV will continue to press the care sector for greater transparency. Every week we are with providers inviting us to look at the many benefits safety monitoring brings to their care service. The value of such is irrefutable; therefore, no legitimate reason exists to not adopt such technologies if the resident care experience is so materially improved.
CCFTV Director Jayne Connery is really looking forward to speaking on a panel debate on safety monitoring in care homes at this year’s Care Show on October 12th at the NEC Birmingham.
