SUB-STANDARD CARE

Many workers suffer awful social problems inside capitalism but undoubtedly the group that most feel the effects of its unfeeling cruelty are the old and the sick who have to rely on the state for treatment. "Complaints over care provision have risen by nearly a quarter in a year, a report said yesterday. The biggest complaint was the quality of care, with the poor attitude of some care staff also a common grievance, according to the Local Government Ombudsman for England. .... The Ombudsman said it had received more than 1,000 complaints about adult social care in the 2011/12 financial year – a 22 per cent rise on the previous year." (Daily Mail, 1 August) RD
