Every Day Is Different Campaign Launch

With a turnover rate of 30% and over 110,000 vacancies at any one time, there is no doubt that we need to attract more people into adult social care. Skills for Care estimates that we’ll need another 650,000 people by 2035.

To help achieve this, the Department of Health and Social Care has piloted a recruitment campaign to help raise the profile of the sector. This campaign will talk about what it means to work in adult social care and to encourage people from all walks of life who have the right values, to consider a career in social care.

Progression and Career Development Opportunities

The new campaign – Every Day Is Different also comes as the Health Foundation published its own report on the NHS workforce, expressing concerns about the growing number of staff shortages across the board.

The new Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) campaign aims to promote social care as a career with good progression and professional development.

Care minister Caroline Dinenage said: “There is huge demand for more care professionals who work incredibly hard to look after the most vulnerable people in our society. “We must spread the word that careers in adult social care can be rewarding, varied and worthwhile. “Care is a vocation where you can transform people’s lives and every day is different to the next.”

Caroline Abrahams, charity director at Age UK, said: “A Government-led social care recruitment initiative is warmly welcome and long overdue, but it needs to be coupled with a raft of measures to improve the status, terms and conditions of the job.”
