Providers are facing increased running costs which have led to higher rates for those receiving care, the Care Quality Commission said.
Some people have had to reduce their care visits to a minimum, which has impacted their quality of life, the Care Quality Commission said
Some providers are also struggling to pay staff in line with inflation, affecting recruitment and retention in the sector. Some people have had to reduce their care visits “to a minimum”, impacting their quality of life, the CQC said. He added that there is a knock-on effect on the NHS when people do not get the care they need at home.
The report stated that “unsafe discharges are putting people at risk, potentially leading to poorer outcomes in their health and care, and being re-admitted to hospital.” Mr Bullion said a third of all providers are now reporting struggles with recruitment and retention of staff, while a quarter of providers said they are considering withdrawing from the social care market because of these issues.
