Description

The pandemic has exposed some of the deep-rooted problems in the UK's care system, however people working in that sector have been calling out for more government support for years. Last week, Downing Street admitted that they still hadn’t come to an agreement on how they would fix the problem. Whatever happens, the only thing that’s going to solve it is money. How much longer can nursing homes look after the elderly? In this episode, host Ashna Hurynag is joined by Sky News’ people and politics correspondent Nick Martin, director of policy at The King’s Fund Sally Warren, and care home worker Kayleigh Jupp.
