Elderly Care Advice Call
During a House of Commons debate on elderly care, Ivan Lewis, parliamentary under-secretary of state for health, said elderly people were in urgent need of advice. He said “Older people and their families tell us time and again that they do not have high quality easy-to-access information to enable them to make very difficult choices about their care or the care of a vulnerable relative.
That is why at the heart of the transformation of the social care programme in every local authority area will be a new approach to information. That need for high quality information and advice must apply to people who fund their own care as well as those who receive public funding”.
