New adult social care complaint decisions

adult social care

A weekly update on adult social care complaint decisions

Please note: our decisions are published six weeks after they are issued to councils, care providers and the person who has made the complaint. The cases below reflect the caselaw and guidance available at the time of issue and the individual circumstances of each case.


Summary: The Council was at fault for the time it took to carry out a review of Ms X's care needs, for the way it reduced some aspects of her care and for its complaint handling. This meant Ms X could not be sure she was receiving the correct support to meet her needs. The Council agreed to apologise to Ms X, make a payment for the uncertainty caused and carry out a service improvement.

Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about adult social care charges. There is not enough evidence of fault or injustice. The Council has given a thorough response which it is unlikely we would add to.
