This shortage of staff also means that when a Home Help has to be
sent to a priority case, such as a home confinement, or when she is ill
or on holiday, many of her cases can only be covered by reducing the
help given to other patients, and some may be left without any assistance
for a time.
Continuing efforts are being made to recruit suitable Home Helps
and the matter is being kept under review.
18 applications were received for Night Attendance, 14 of which
were served, the remaining 4 having been admitted to hospital or
deceased.
