I had from my LA. A couple of weeks ago, the Social worker I spoke to told me that my brother, who I look after should be getting more care, and me more paid nights. She escalated the case.
Good news?
I got a call today from another social worker who told me that if we take my brothers package to panel, we would be risking it getting cut.
Also if I requested any more paid nights, he could go to a home.
She also noted that his package is “big”
I don’t live with him, and get paid two nights a week - but pretty much do seven.
I phoned her manager and said I felt rather threatened - I have now received a mail from her tell me that she will do a strength based review.
Should I be worried - I have bad experience with my LA, so I’m obviously a bit paranoid.
Can they cut his care? What is a strength based review? It is only me and him, both our parents are deceased
Thanks In advance
