One of the greatest privileges of my role at Care Campaign for the Vulnerable is the opportunity to have conversations with an extraordinary range of people.

Adult social care is often judged through ratings, inspections and compliance frameworks. While these all have an important role to play, I believe they only tell part of the story.

Over the past 14 years, through Care Campaign for the Vulnerable (CCFTV), we have supported hundreds of families navigating the care system. True accountability goes beyond inspection reports. It requires transparency, openness, listening to families, supporting staff to speak up, and creating a culture where concerns are welcomed rather than feared.

Independent oversight is not about criticism of one organisation but about building confidence, strengthening trust and ensuring that the voices of residents, families and frontline staff are truly heard.

Exploring complex dementia care, Care Campaign for the Vulnerable (CCFTV) highlights how innovative technology can support safer, more person-centred care while preserving compassion and human connection.

04/06/2026

Having spent more than a decade supporting families affected by dementia and complex care needs I have seen first-hand the challenges facing both providers and care staff. One thing has was always clear to me is that technology has an important role to play in helping the sector deliver safer, more responsive and more personalised care.

Whether it is visual safety monitoring, acoustic monitoring, falls prevention systems, digital care planning, sensor technology, medication management or communication tools, innovation is helping providers identify risks earlier, support staff and improve outcomes for those receiving care.

Technology is not a replacement for human care. Compassion, kindness and meaningful relationships will always be at the heart of outstanding care. However, when used appropriately, technology can give staff better information, provide reassurance to families and support older people to maintain greater independence and dignity. As our population ages and care needs become more complex, CCFTV is leading the conversation about how innovation can support both those receiving care and those providing it.

The providers achieving the best outcomes in the future are likely to be those that successfully combine outstanding people with outstanding technology. So I am always encouraged by the organisations continuing to reach out to CCFTV saying they are investing in innovation and want to explore new ways of improving safety, wellbeing and quality of life for older people.💜💚

CCFTV is supporting families that continue to face huge emotional and practical struggles when trying to secure NHS Continuing Healthcare funding for a loved one with complex needs.

Too often, families are left trying to evidence what is already in front of services: that their loved one’s care needs are not simply social care needs, but health needs requiring proper assessment, recognition and support. In one recent case seen by Care Campaign for the Vulnerable, a family raised repeated concerns about their mother, who was living with dementia and experiencing weight loss, continence issues, anxiety, changes in behaviour and increasing care needs. During a period of respite in a care home, she began to improve. She gained weight, appeared calmer, was eating and drinking well, taking medication appropriately, engaging with staff and seemed more settled.

For the family, this was important evidence. It showed that with the right level of 24-hour care, support, prompting, nutrition, continence care and professional oversight, their mother’s wellbeing improved. Yet the family still found themselves having to push, question and advocate for his needs to be properly understood.

This is what so many families face. They are not asking for special treatment but for fair assessment, clear communication and recognition of complex dementia care needs. Families often become exhausted trying to navigate NHS Continuing Healthcare, Decision Support Tools, care assessments, social care input, mental health services and local authority processes. The language can be confusing, the system can feel fragmented, and families can feel as though they are being passed between services.

When a person is losing weight, requires continence support, needs prompting to eat and drink, has dementia-related anxiety behaviours, requires medication review and benefits from 24-hour care, families should not have to fight to have those needs taken seriously.

Care Campaign for the Vulnerable believes families must be listened to, evidence must be properly considered, and NHS funding decisions must reflect the true level of need. NHS Care England
