Abolish minute by minute pay for carers

Abolish the minute by minute pay for home carers.

Why is this important?

I have seen a lot of excellent colleagues, with years of experience leave the industry because of the impossible wages being paid. Travel time isn't factored in

I see staff shortages putting pressure upon services, staff and clients. There is less continuity of care. There is low morale amongst carers not knowing what will happen in the future. Companies are finding it harder and harder to recruit and retain staff.

Complaints are rising, people are becoming increasingly unhappy and stressed.

Start putting people first, carers and vulnerable clients. Stop the cuts before it's too late for home care.
