Julie Morgan AS/MS, Deputy Minister for Health and Social Services, confirms social workers in Wales are integral to ensuring the wellbeing of residents in residential care and should be recognised as professional visitors
A group of royal colleges and professional bodies, including BASW Cymru, has written to Vaughan Gething MS, Minister for Health and Social Services in the Welsh National Assembly.
From the outset, BASW has viewed the proposed role for care home managers as unworkable and is pleased to see the government’s recognition of sector opposition to the proposal.
BASW Cymru is working with Rhun ap Iorwerth MS, Health and Social Services Lead for Plaid Cymru, on changing the latest guidance around care home visits in Wales.
Phillip Mitchell, Professional Officer at BASW Cymru, provides a detailed and engaging introduction to the Law in Wales Practice Policy & Education Group (PPEG).
