Shock Norfolk social care shake-up after serious concerns raised

Postby maureenho » 27 Jan 2014, 14:45

Serious concerns that social care for adults with mental health issues in Norfolk is not good enough has led to the county council taking responsibility for the service away from the mental health trust.

Norfolk County Council’s cabinet agreed to the move at a meeting today, which will see just over a hundred staff who had been transferred to the Norfolk and Suffolk Foundation Trust five years ago go back to being managed from County Hall.

The complaints we have heard about from carers in Norfolk fits in with this.
