A National Problem: The Care Sector’s Recruitment Struggles
The UK’s care industry is in the midst of a recruitment crisis, with many care homes and home care services unable to fill vacant positions. According to recent reports, thousands of care roles remain unfilled, impacting the quality of care that vulnerable people receive. This is a growing issue that has been exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic, economic uncertainty, and the ongoing challenge of attracting new talent to the sector.
What’s Causing the Crisis?
Several factors contribute to the recruitment crisis in the care sector. One of the primary issues is the low wages compared to the demands of the job. Many carers face long hours, physical and emotional stress, yet are not compensated in a way that reflects their dedication. Moreover, the demanding nature of the job, especially in residential care, can lead to burnout and high turnover rates.
