So many social workers???????

Social services are stretched to the limit, have limited resources and the people that genuinely need their help can't get it because the few social workers about have massive case loads and no time to do all the paperwork involved......If there was more support out there for the people that really do need it there would be less crap going on !! :-[ :-[[/quote]

I know Tina Beamer but you haven't actually answered the question 'Why are there so many?' or explained why they are 'stretched to the limit' ?

Perhaps the social workers should concentrate on those who genuinely need help rather than those who are foisted on them to be given help by others in the state system. The government could sort a lot of this out by redefining the areas that should concern them in the legal twaddle that costs us even more money and reduce litigation costs caused by complaints.
