Social care is extremely important in the UK, and across the globe. We need a solid social care system in place to provide help for people who need it. Without a well-structured, well-funded social care system, people would have to go without. In the UK, social care can help with:
- Providing meals
- At home and residential care
- Alternative accommodation
- Home adaptations
- Specialist equipment
- Personal alarms and security systems
- And much more
In the below infographic by HARTMANN Direct, we are going to explore the realities of adult social care, what it is for, the costs involved in it, and where the money is going.
