Care Campaign for the Vulnerable is learning of the pressures faced by conscientious led Care Providers striving to offer a caring and safe environment to both service users and staff. Safety monitoring is proving to be a invaluable care assist tool - bringing a more open and transparent culture into care homes as well as saving valuable resources within the care home sector and the NHS
Care Campaign for the Vulnerable (CCFTV) has formally written to the newly appointed Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, Wes Streeting MP. In our correspondence, we expressed our strong desire to collaborate with the government to ensure that care providers can implement independent safety monitoring systems effectively.
At Care Campaign for the Vulnerable, we have long advocated for the installation of responsible, choice-based, independent monitoring systems within dementia care communities. These systems, managed by a team of NHS/Care professionals, are essential in preventing abuse and ensuring the highest standards of care for our vulnerable citizens.
We are already working with forward-thinking care providers who have begun to implement this crucial technology. Their commitment to transparency and accountability is commendable, and their efforts have significantly improved the safety and well-being of their residents and care staff.
However, financial constraints can be a significant barrier for some providers, particularly those reliant on local authority funding. The government must support these providers to ensure that safety monitoring systems can be implemented across all care services, regardless of financial limitations.
In line with the Labour Party's manifesto promises, we urge the government to prioritise the safety and dignity of our vulnerable. Supporting safety monitoring is a vital step towards fulfilling these promises and ensuring that all individuals receive the high-quality care they deserve.
Care Campaign for the Vulnerable remains committed to working with all stakeholders to achieve these goals and to build a social care system where the vulnerable can thrive and carers are protected.
