A report published by the Older People's
Commissioner for Wales has said that
many people living in care homes have an "unacceptable quality of
life". Care Forum Wales Chair
Mario Kreft said, however, that the findings did not "fully recognise what
is being achieved despite the system".
The Chief
Inspector of Care and Social Services Inspectorate Wales (CSSIW), Imelda Richardson, also stressed that the majority of care homes provide good
or excellent care, but admitted that there is "still an unacceptable level of care in some homes".
The Welsh
government has stated that it is already taking appropriate action to address
these issues.
