Comment on: Have you missed your connection?
Absolutely agree with the above poster, and by the looks of it things will continue on this way with more private and voluntary sector 'involvement', which, in reality leads to fragmentation and confusion for those on the front line, in many cases. I think we all have to make a stand at this sort of nonsense - ie the rhetoric which goes on and on about 'partnership working' and jointed up thinking' whilst splitting services etc.
For example - I work in an organisation undergoing stock transfer. We currently have reasonably good working relationships with other departments eg social services and Env Health, so in the scenarios described above there generally is quite a good exchange of information about clients, joint visits etc., On the horizon however is the prospect of long 'information exchange' protocols and the like - all an added administrative burden which will do nothing but hinder the possiblility of successful joint working scenarios.
Sorry to be so negative, because in many cases you do have joint working, but it is the direction of current thinking that is the key problem that needs to be highlighted.
