AnnotationThe government's rethink on family carers envisages early, tailored support. This article comments on findings by the Commission for Social Care Inspection (CSCI) in its 'State of social care' report on Fair Access to Care Services (FACS) which appear to be rationing rather than providing support for carers. Policies such as personalised care services should be helping carers, particularly the special needs of young carers. (RH).
