Rising costs and demand are a huge strain on council budgets and services face ‘intolerable pressures’, says Adass
England’s overstretched and creaking adult social care services need urgent government intervention to stabilise them financially as rising costs and demand play havoc with council budgets, care bosses have warned.
The financial challenge facing adult social care continued to be “as bad as it has been in recent history”, the Association of Directors of Adult Social Services (Adass) said, and services are under “intolerable pressures”.
