Interesting to see in print the government's three 'core objectives' for adult #socialcare. They are sensible and coherent, even if they do skip over the key issue of eligibility. A surprise, though, to see them at all after a year when social care strategy was largely avoided.

3.5 million people in England aren’t getting the social care they need. As a member of the @candsalliance, we’re asking MPs to come to the #ShowUsYouCare social care parliamentary event where they will hear from people who are directly impacted by social care.

Behind every number is a person providing care & support to family and loved ones often at a financial cost and to their health and wellbeing. Our vision is for unpaid care to be recognised, supported and remunerated when it’s a choice. #Carersweek #unpaidcarers #CareCantWait

@SFHFT I am very sorry to hear this news of PauI and hope his family get some comfort from the tributes here. I remember him as being a nice man, a very capable FD and supported cooperation and collaboration in the interests of better public services.

We have been devastated to learn that our Trust Chief Executive, Paul Robinson, has passed away following a year-long battle with illness. He will be missed by all who knew him and our thoughts remain with his family and friends at this difficult time.

@NewcrossHealth @LouiseSteadRSFT @RoyalSurrey Louise was very candid about how leadership must walk the talk about culture change within the NHS @WyeValleyNHS @BBCNews @25DavidPearson @TobyLewis_NHS @gavinNHS

Adrian the crisis in EDs is shocking and staff must be traumatised. The response surely must involve higher priority for community services and prevention including social care. Hospitals can improve but depend on other services to do better
