Mentalnurse tells us about the big headline in community psychiatric services. I’d say that this post sums up the whole of the NHS…
First off Care coordinators have to look for services that say they will do the work that’s shown on a care plan, then you have to beg for the money to pay for the services, and then you have to monitor the services so that they do what they say they are doing. This last bit is really frustrating, because often they are not, but there are no other services available, so its a bit like being a toothless tiger - and if you want to know what that’s like, just imagine trying to suck an antelope to death.
