I'm currently a management trainee on the NHS Graduate Scheme, working on integrated care strategy and am shocked on a daily basis at how, in the 21st century, we still cannot provide easy to navigate, joined-up care. There seems to be a lot of talk of integrated care but we need to start making it happen sooner.PandaGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16379359113960672601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6350917743791328479.post-55012093452772179432013-10-21T09:31:39.867+01:002013-10-21T09:31:39.867+01:00A picture uncannily close to a couple I knew until...A picture uncannily close to a couple I knew until they both died a year ago, and one which will become more common in various forms.

Too many older people don't want to, or don't know how to, ask for help. OPAAL is the Older People's Advocacy Alliance, the strategic lead for independent advocacy for older people across the UK. Isn't it time more independent advocacy was commissioned in circumstances like those described? Isn't it time advocacy was on the radar? An advocate can be the link that ensures agencies start talking to each other to better support those that need support.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15716100241489227101noreply@blogger.com
