Hertfordshire - more money needed for care
Hertfordshire County Council has set aside an extra £9.5m to meet the need this year, but there are fears that this still will not be enough to cover the cost of care for the growing elderly population.
Adult care services currently arrange community or residential care for one in eight people over the age of 65 and support 2,300 adults with a learning disability to enable them to live in their own home.
However, the number of older people requiring home care has risen by eight per cent over the last two years and there has been an additional burden placed on local authorities by NHS financial recovery plans.
