October 2020 - what have we been hearing?
These are the key issues we've been hearing in October - including taking part in social care and Continuing Healthcare sessions online, visiting in care homes and supported living, and mental health provision across Sheffield.
We're sharing the key things we hear each month, so that services and commissioners of services can hear from you. We've collated enquiries from members of the public, feedback from voluntary sector colleagues, and stories shared on Care Opinion.
