Call You and Yours: What's it like in the care system right now in your experience? The regulator says the health and social care system in England is gridlocked. It's a similar story in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Waits for hospital beds are at record highs because patients can't be discharged for care in the community. Half a million people are now waiting for council-funded care in England alone - an increase from just under 300,000 in a year. Staff shortages are causing major problems - do you run or work in a care home? Do you or someone you love need care? What's it like in the care system right now in your experience?
