Season 1: EP 024: Caring about Care with Jasmeet Rai (Part 2)

Driving Change and Fostering Inclusion in Healthcare and Social Care

Justine and Jasmeet are back talking about how important social care is to our society. The pair talk about best practices, misconceptions about social care, and really understanding the people that make up our industry.

In this episode of What the HealthTech, host Justine Abson continues the conversation with Jasmeet, the associate director at RCH Care Homes, to delve into various aspects of healthcare and social care. They explore key changes since the publication of a recent report and discuss low-cost, high-impact recommendations for driving change in the sector.

One significant point raised is the disparity in how healthcare and social care are perceived, with social care often overshadowed despite its importance. They highlight initiatives such as ad campaigns and mentorship programs aimed at addressing recruitment and retention challenges.

The conversation also touches on the importance of diversity, inclusion, and mental health support in the social care sector. Jasmeet shares insights from roundtable discussions and emphasises the need for systematic changes and grassroots efforts to improve the overall well-being of care providers and recipients.

Furthermore, they discuss ongoing consultations and efforts to address various issues, including access to care, mental health, and sustainability. Throughout the podcast, the focus remains on amplifying diverse voices and sharing heartwarming stories that showcase the human side of health and social care.
