The Department of Health and Social Care is encouraging the public to apply for short-term and long-term opportunities in the adult social care sector. A campaign is being launched to highlight the varied and flexible roles available across the care sector. Guidance on how to register interest in taking up short-term paid work in adult social care is available here.
The White paper setting out legislative proposals for a Health and Care Bill has been published. The Executive Summary states: High-performing teams and organisations have vibrant cultures that create the conditions for people to perform at their very best. They are collaborative and open organisations, people focussed with processes that support rather than suffocate the efforts of individuals to do good work. And so, this white paper sets out our proposals for legislation to support and enable the health and care workforce, organisations and wider system to work together to improve, integrate and innovate.
