A Workforce Strategy for Adult Social Care in England

"For the first time ever, the adult social care sector has come together, led by Skills for Care, to develop the Workforce Strategy it needs. Adult social care needs a workforce strategy to ensure we have enough of the right people with the right skills to provide the best possible care and support for the people who draw on it. 

Development of this vital Strategy has been truly collaborative and it could not have been developed without the expertise, time and commitment of many stakeholders."
