CCPS Briefing: Winter pressures in social care 26.09.22

With significant cost and demand pressures facing third sector providers of social care and support, CCPS undertook a snapshot survey of members in early September.  Rachel Cackett, CCPS CEO said, “The situation is grave as providers – and the people they are supporting – face a perfect storm over the coming months. In the few weeks since we asked our members to tell us about the pressures they are under, the economic situation has become significantly worse. We have shared our key findings with the Scottish Parliament’s Health, Social Care and Sport Committee as they undertake their own discussions on winter pressures for the sector.  CCPS continues to be ready to discuss practical measures that will support the sustainability of the sector for everyone who needs care and support.”
