Financial challenges: clear figures
Care Provider Alliance releases data
The Care Provider Alliance (CPA) has released sobering data on financial challenges for the sector as a result of budget announcements and employer national insurance increases.
Research was also in support of the #providersunite open letter campaigning to government on the issue.
Figures from the CPA survey of 1,180 care and support providers showed:
- 73% will have to refuse new care packages from local authorities or the NHS
- 77% will have to draw on reserves
The parliamentary petition to exempt adult social care providers of employer national insurance increase is also still live, please do sign if you can.
