Ms Y complained that the Council failed to safeguard her relative Ms X, consider her needs as Ms X’s primary carer and reimburse her for care she arranged. There is no fault in how the Council assessed Ms X’s care and support needs or carried out a carers assessment for Ms Y. The Council also addressed Ms Y’s complaint about outstanding payments for Ms X’s care without fault.
