Recommendation 57
57
Paragraph: 190
Parity of esteem between NHS and social care is crucial for retention improvements.
Conclusion
The work that social carers do is essential to the lives of those who are cared for, and to their families. It is vital that they are treated by the Government and by wider society with the same respect as their NHS colleagues. It is not until parity of esteem between the NHS and social care is achieved that recruitment and retention in the social care sector will improve.
