Keen to get your comments on care

The recent spate of reports that have been released over the care and dignity of individuals in hospital and care homes is troubling. And, as someone recently stated to me, dignity costs nothing and it is important to keep striving to get this right.

In Warwickshire the Local Involvement Network (LINk) - an independent body that is seeking to bring together local people, groups and organisations across the community with the one common purpose of improving health and social care services.

LINk has powers to ask questions, visit local services and comment on them.

Warwickshire LINK believes that a lot of positive things are happening but, as always, some are not so good.

Together we can change things for the better by ensuring that your views are known to the professionals that need to hear the stories from those that are receiving the service. - Jerry Roodhouse, chairman Warwickshire LINk.
