Care homes under pressure
The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) care homes survey 2010 was undertaken to get a snapshot view of the current situation in England’s care homes sector, specifically focusing on capacity, workforce, meeting resident’s needs and quality of care. We surveyed registered nurses and health care assistants. Results show that complex care needs of residents are increasing. The staffing levels in these homes are unable to respond efficiently to meet resident needs.
