  • Podcast: Using new approaches to promote ‘old school’ social work for older adults
    2024/05/08
    When Hampshire County Council’s adult social care teams noticed a doubling of the care packages required for people within its population aged over 85 years, it found a solution through an approach called proactive enhanced care (PEC).

    This approach taps into a return to ‘old school’ social work values that focus on prioritising time with the older person and focussing on a person-centred approach to how they are supported.

    In this episode, social workers in Hampshire County Council's older adults teams discuss how older adults are benefitting from this approach.

    We speak with Ryan Campbell, a service manager for older adults in the north east of Hampshire, and Bridget Hamilton, a senior social worker in one of the older adults’ community teams, who helped with the roll out of the PEC project.

    And later in the episode, we catch up with Matt Hutchinson, head of service for South Hampshire Older Adults teams who devised the PEC project, to find out if there are plans to extend the PEC project to a younger demographic of older adults.

  • Turning challenge into opportunity - social workers share experiences of working in a large county
    2024/04/19
    In this episode of the Workforce Insights podcast, Community Care's career editor Sharmeen Ziauddin speaks to social workers who share their experience of working in the large rural county of Northamptonshire.

    Northampton Children's Trust (NCT) serves one of the biggest counties in England. Since the Covid-19 pandemic, many families became isolated and levels of deprivation went up. The long lasting effects of the pandemic on service users are still being seen by practitioners at NCT.

    Guests Brian Browne and Mason Poore, both in the safeguarding and support team at NCT, discuss the challenges families and young people face.

    They talk about how supportive leadership helps them do their job better and keeps them motivated in their practice.

    Cherise Campbell-Sullivan, a student social worker, is also a guest on the podcast and tells us her experience of her placement at NCT.

    The importance of the visibility of senior leadership and the praise and recognition of doing well in your role, is discussed as well.

  • Supporting adults with learning disabilities and autism post-pandemic
    2024/03/13
    In the latest episode of the Workforce Insights podcast, Sharmeen Ziaudding speaks to Dan Wilkins and Juliana Ameh about their work at Wiltshire Council in adult social care.

    Dan is the head of transformation and quality assurance for adults and has over 20 years' experience working with adults with learning disabilities and autism. Juliana is a social worker in the learning disability and autism team. Prior to qualifying as a social worker, she was a support worker for people with learning disabilities.

    They talk about how things have changed for them and the adults they support since the Covid-19 pandemic began in 2020.

    They talk about differences in services offered, how there is more demand for services and the increase in awareness around neurodivergence.

    How can practitioners support adults with autism better? And how can local authorities support neurodivergent staff?

    In the podcast, Dan recommends the book Made Possible by Saba Salman.

    You can read about how Wiltshire Council is embedding co-production with disabled people in social care (mentioned in the episode) here.

    Here is the transcript of this episode.
