March Newsletter 2017

April 10, 2017 by Sally Mortimore

Welcome to the March newsletter – apologies for the slightly late delivery, it has been a very busy month.

Please note particularly the new edition of Working Together Guidance.

Have a great Easter, everybody

The local authority have recently acquired the services of a new independent person (Aidhour) to undertake the monitoring inspections of the home. As a result the quality of external monitoring has improved and provides a greater critique of the quality of care provided.
Ofsted inspectors
Aidhour were professional in their approach to the tendering process and we negotiated a contract with minimal problem.

My IRO knew me since I was three, he saw me going through primary and secondary.

[Ealing Council, IRO client] “IROs provide good quality written records following each review. IROs bring additional safeguarding scrutiny by monitoring children’s progress between reviews. The timeliness of LAC reviews and the level of participation by children in their reviews, both at 96%, are very good”.
Ofsted, October 2018
I can’t thank you enough for being available along the way and the flexibility you have shown and the honesty and quality of your reports which have been most professional
[written by a Father about supervised contact service] September 2016
[Aidhour Associate] is thorough but fair, and has a lovely way of engaging with our most challenging young people, and interacting with the staff. We appreciate her advice and she is approachable. I have found the Director to be responsive and cooperative to any contact or request I make and I have never had any cause to raise any issue of concern or to make a complaint. Aidhour have kept within our agreed budget limits.
Head of Children’s Safeguarding, County Council
[Aidhour] Case auditing is well established and ensures that leaders and managers are confident that they know what is happening on the ground.

[City of London Corporation, Annual Audit client] Audit arrangements for the provision of services to care leavers are good. Audits are effective tools in identifying the difference that practice has made to improve outcomes for young people. They are qualitatively focused as well as compliance focused…”

***** is my IRO and even though I have had 8 different social workers since I have been in care, he has been the same. Now he helps me chair my own reviews.

[Ealing Council, IRO client] A group of strong, committed and experienced IROs act as passionate advocates for children, and … offer appropriate challenge.
