The crisis in care is so great, Ros urges Government to get on with ending the postcode lottery, ensuring standardized assessments and integration of NHS and care services.
Ros YouTube video explaining her fears that the Government is not taking Dilnot’s recommendations seriously enough and arguing that they must not just be kicked into the long grass.
