Department of Health and Social Care written question – answered at on 28 February 2023.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what estimate his Department has made of the number of social care staff required to deliver on the priorities set out in People at the Heart of Care: adult social care reform white paper.
The Government has not estimated the number of care staff required to deliver our reforms, as growing the workforce is itself one of our top priorities. The People at the Heart of Care white paper set out a vision for adult social care that included improved workforce recruitment and retention, and we are committed to supporting local authorities deliver their workforce planning responsibilities. In spring 2023, we will publish a plan for adult social care system reform. This will set out how we will build on the progress so far to implement our vision for adult social care.
