Developing a new course on the MCA and alcohol and substance use in the coming months. A complex area where I’m finding a theme of professionals being challenged when completing capacity assessments. Hoping it will help and looking forward to getting my geek on! 🐾

I don’t like the phrase “bespoke package” of care. Because all care packages should be bespoke by the nature of being person centred. Right? Right? Context: bespoke in this case refers to a package that exceeds 4 x calls a day in someone’s own home.
