North East Lincolnshire Council pays one of the lowest rates | :00:09. | :00:13. | |
in the country to support older and disabled people | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
The UK home care Association found on average the authority pahd just | :00:17. | :00:21. | |
over ?12.50 an hour. That's nearly ?4 less than a recommended `mount. | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
An industry under pressure, with workers sometimes | :00:25. | :00:33. | |
That's the claim from the UK Homecare Association which says many | :00:34. | :00:38. | |
councils don't pay enough for private carers to visit | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
the elderly, or infirm, at home. Elizabeth Gregory | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
from Immingham has been reliant on daily home care | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
since breaking her hip six lonths ago, but says her carers | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
They could do with more timd, all they get is half an hour. | :00:51. | :00:56. | |
That's to shower you, get you dressed and everythhng, | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
and give you your breakfast and even the girls say it's not long enough. | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
The UK Homecare Association suggests that since the introduction | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
of the National Living Wage, councils should be paying an average | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
of ?16.70 an hour to provide home care. | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
But according to their figures, the East Riding of Yorkshird Council | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
pays ?14.23, Lincolnshire spends an average of ?13.68, | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
and North East Lincolnshire pays just ?12.56 - more than ?4 below | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
And those rates say the Local Government Associ`tion | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
are a sign of "councils struggling for cash". | :01:37. | :01:38. | |
It is economics at the mad house because it relieves the pressure | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
on the NHS and we all see stories every day what's happening. | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
People want to be looked after at home. | :01:46. | :01:47. | |
In the future we may not have the provides to do that, | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
The Local Government Associ`tion says this is a national problem | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
which the government needs to get to grips with. | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
The HCA have brought forward their report and we haven't | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
been able to understand exactly how they've got to the figures | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
However, what we can concur with is there is a deficit | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
in the market and through the Local Government Associ`tion | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
at the moment we have identified that there is | :02:15. | :02:16. | |
Today North East Lincolnshire's Clinical Commissioning Group says | :02:17. | :02:25. | |
it's working hard on servicds at a time when budgets are limited. | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
But like other groups looking after home care, | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
it's likely to be facing a financial challenge. | :02:32. | :02:34. | |
Overnight closures at Grantham's A department | :02:35. | :02:40. | |
In July the unit shut its doors from 6.30pm until 9am, despite local | :02:41. | :02:47. | |
opposition, because there wdren t enough doctors. | :02:48. | :02:49. | |
Clinical directors at the United Lincolnshire Hospitals Trust | :02:50. | :02:52. | |
are recommending closures rdmain in place - a decision | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
Over the winter months it whll be even more of an issue purelx | :02:57. | :03:03. | |
because of the winter weathdr that comes with it, the icy condhtions. | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
I personally do not believe it was ever a temporary measure | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
I believe it was a test perhod to test the impact of Grantham | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
without having those services during the evening, | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
with a plan to eventually ttrn us into an urgent care centre. | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
Work has started tonight to dig up paving in Grimsby which was laid | :03:24. | :03:26. | |
just three years ago as part of a ?6 million refurbishment. | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
The local council says it's removing the slabs because they're btckling | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
It's hoped the work will be completed and the area laid | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
Mental health campaigners are urging people not to dress up in costumes | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
like straitjackets or escapdd asylum patient suits this Halloween | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
because it's distasteful and stigmatises people | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
David Smith from the mental health charity Mind in Hull says p`tients | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
with genuine illnesses could be left feeling like monsters. | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
From pumpkins in Denmark to spooky selfies in Hong Kong, | :04:02. | :04:09. | |
the imagery of Halloween is familiar worldwide. | :04:10. | :04:12. | |
But here in East Yorkshire one charity boss says people should | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
think twice before wearing costumes themed around mental health. | :04:16. | :04:21. | |
For the people dressing up and going out it might just be a bit | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
of fun but for those people living a life with mental health problems | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
each time they see this it's just reinforcing that stigma over | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
and over again, that they'rd different, they're dangerous | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
and at Halloween time that they are monsters. | :04:36. | :04:37. | |
The dressing up has already started in Lincoln, | :04:38. | :04:39. | |
where a seven-foot skeleton led a family-friendly parade. | :04:40. | :04:41. | |
So do people here think mental health themed | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
costumes are offensive? Nobody wants to offend but H think | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
we have become a culture where everyone is offended | :04:51. | :04:52. | |
It is taking something that is quite serious but at the same | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
time it is Halloween and it is just a joke. | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
It's three years since Tesco withdrew it's psycho ward ottfit | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
and ASDA its mental patient costume following complaints but a puick | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
online search shows popular website like eBay and Amazon continte | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
The owner of this fancy dress shop in Hull says she's never stocked | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
such items because of a lack of demand. | :05:23. | :05:25. | |
I have never sold them and H've never been asked for them | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
and if there was it is usually for Hannibal Lecter. | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
I've never had anyone saying they want to be a mental patient | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
and if they do I can't see that really people think it as offensive. | :05:35. | :05:37. | |
I think it's a fun night out, Halloween, and people just | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
Sally Burke's daughter Maishe has received specialist mental health | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
For Sally, such costumes are distasteful. | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
It is upsetting as a parent because she has been called those | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
names and they do hit her h`rd, she does take them personally. | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
She's a human with feelings and I think that's what we need | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
to remember as a nation, that we need to be | :06:02. | :06:03. | |
Mental health campaigners are calling for manufacturers | :06:04. | :06:10. | |
to stop selling these products, but in the meantime it's hoped | :06:11. | :06:13. | |
people wanting to dress up this Halloween can find fun | :06:14. | :06:15. | |
Now a look at the weather forecast with Keeley Donovan. | :06:16. | :06:27. | |
If you're out trick or treating this weekend another mild Hallowden | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
is forecast and actually settled weather through the weekend. | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
Any clear spells overnight will fill in with some mist or fog, | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
By the end of the night a pretty grey story with temperatures | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
in the countryside lower th`n this, back in single figures. | :06:44. | :06:45. | |
We will see it brighten up ` little bit, I don't think there'll | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
be very much sunshine, if I'm honest, tomorrow it's fairly | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
overcast with an improvement nonetheless and temperatures | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
on the mild side, which shotld be around 11 degrees. | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
If you're celebrating Diwalh on Sunday, it does look | :07:01. | :07:02. | |
like another fine day, perhaps a better chance | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
of a little bit of sunshine throuh the afternoon. | :07:05. | :07:06. | |
So high pressure dominating into the early part of next week, | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
Then on Tuesday some patchy rain and drizzle. | :07:10. | :07:16. | |
We cannot complain at that. That is it. There will be updates throughout | :07:17. | :07:26. | |
the weekend. Our next bulletin at 5:50pm tomorrow evening. From me and | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
the rest of the team, have ` lovely weekend. Goodbye. | :07:33. | :07:34. | |
to come into the beginning of next week as well. Now the national | :07:35. | :07:36. | |
picture. Hello, it's been a pretty good week | :07:37. | :07:46. | |
for getting out and enjoying the autumn colours, | :07:47. | :07:47. |
