Factors affecting recruitment and retention of personal assistants in England
The shift towards the greater personalisation of care has seen a rise in personal assistants (PAs) employed by individuals using their own funds or receiving public support.

We find that PA turnover and vacancies are affected by care need, type of support and local labou…

We hypothesise that primarily alcohol effects LTC through its adverse effect on health. In addition, unobserved factors like preferences towards seeking care, social behaviour may be related to alcohol consumption and affect access to care. We speculate alcohol may have a damaging effect on personal relationships and c…
Personal assistants in England and the factors associated with absenteeism
