Charging Challenges

Community Care law faces the double challenge of insufficient resource to deliver duties and lack of legal aid to make challenges. CASCAIDr is currently fundraising through Crowd Justice to co-fund a suite of publicly available barristers' opinions on four of the most essential areas of law. In this episode we highlight issues in these areas: Care Act processes, meeting eligible needs, direct payments and mental health s117 aftercare. We give some pointers about how you can question these issues if they come up for you.

In this episode, we dive into the topic of charging for adult social care. We talk through the law, regulations and guidance that cover this. We explore the financial implications and accountabilities when you are planning, arranging or receiving adult social care.

In this episode we finish our two-part exploration of direct payments by looking at how they are managed. We give you a 'who's who' of roles and highlight important aspects of these to help you understand what you are taking on.
