September 2016

November 28, 2016 by Sally Mortimore

This newsletter follows a good review from our work in Ealing by Ofsted – the IRO and Foster Carer review services were positively commented upon.

Newsletter
[Brent Council, IRO client] There is good evidence of IRO scrutiny and challenge with good impact.
Ofsted, May 2018
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.  
Head of Children’s Safeguarding, County Council
It has been such a pleasure to work with Aidhour on this case. The IRO’s observations, pointing out things that were not going right, insistence to ensure they are worked on and openness in approach, taught me a lot. Thank you!
Independent Social Worker
Aidhour Associates are highly professional, whilst at the same time open in their approach when this includes family or significant others to any young person in placement.    
Head of Residential Services, Private Enterprise Childrens Services
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
My IRO knew me since I was three, he saw me going through primary and secondary.

[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…”
Ofsted, October 2018
Regular visits and reports from the independent visitor (Aidhour) have offered an important source of scrutiny and challenge for the interim manager. She recently helped to simplify the consultation papers, which are now widely used by young people.
Ofsted Inspection Report
***** 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.
