parent carer view

20/10/2022

I am a parent carer for my son. Things I would like changing to make our lives easier. Firstly, stop using external companies instead of keeping them in house eg wheelchair service and equipment service. They are both not fit for purpose and need their contracts cancelling. Secondly EHC plans are annual plans, but the council are taking almost a year to say they agree with them. Thirdly, there needs to be a community paediatric resp physio. The team of professionals we have are great.
