The mental health and homecare sector

If you work in private nursing, homecare, mental health or with social workers who happen to offer bespoke care packages then you will know how important it is to meet the current demands. At the end of the day, the total demand for care has gone up over time and this is largely due to the aging population. Now it looks like there are over 950,000 people in the UK who are receiving domiciliary care. In order to try and meet this need, it looks like the number of registrations who are with the CQC have increased. When you look at the first quarter of the year 2023, it’s not hard to see that a ton of new providers have now registered and that this is now an increase of over 32%. With the number of providers who are working in the market currently, it is safe to say that a lot of business success will come down to the clients who are providing care and the circle that connects care. Tech can support the objectives through improving communication as well as operational efficiency. The increased demand for care means that carers and agencies will have to do more to try and meet the homecare need. It looks like there is also a lot of demand for the aging population and that people are now experiencing more long-term disabilities. They need help with daily duties and at the end of the day, it doesn’t look like they are being given it. Only time will tell what the future holds but right now homecare demands are not being met and the only way this is going to change is if more is done to give support to those who need it the most. This can only happen through more staffing.
