are the barriers to, and facilitators for, supporting care placement stability among looked-after children and young people?</p><div id="niceng205er2.s1.1.1"><h4>Introduction</h4><p>This review will consider interventions to support placement stability in children and young people who are looked after. In March 2018, 75,420 children and young people in England were looked after. Care placements for looked after children and young people may include: foster placement (73%), residential accommodation (including secure units, children’s homes, and semi-independent living arrangements) (11%), placement with birth parents (6%), placement for prospective adoption (3%), another placement in the community (4%), or placement in residential schools or other residential settings (3%). For looked after children and young people only 29% of placements are long term and 50% of long-term teenage placements have been found to break down. Placement break-down is associated with poor outcomes for looked-after children and young people including educational and relational outcomes, and physical, mental, and emotional health and wellbeing.</p><p>The broad system of care offered by local authorities in the UK aims to support placement stability. For example, regular review meetings are held with looked after children and young people during which problems with the placement can be raised and extra support can be requested. In addition, looked after children are assigned individual social workers to provide direct one-to-one care. Additional interventions may also be offered, for example, carer training courses or peer support. However, there is uncertainty about which aspects of statutory and non-statutory care are found to be helpful and accessible by looked after children and young people, their carers and support providers, for supporting placement stability.</p><p>The aim of this review is to explore the barriers to, and facilitators for placement stability in looked-after children and young people as perceived by looked after children themselves, their carers, and support providers and to synthesise overarching themes that can highlight ways that placement stability can be improved.</p></div><div id="niceng205er2.s1.1.2"><h4>SPIDER table</h4><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figniceng205er2tab1"><a href="/books/NBK575860/table/niceng205er2.tab1/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table 1" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figniceng205er2tab1" rid-ob="figobniceng205er2tab1"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK575860/table/niceng205er2.tab1/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK575860/table/niceng205er2.tab1/?report=previmg" alt="Table 1.

For further details of the methods used see <a href="/books/NBK575860/bin/niceng205er2_bm1.pdf">Appendix N</a>. Methods specific to this review question are described in this section and in the review protocol in <a href="#niceng205er2.appa">Appendix A</a>.</p><p>The search strategies for this review (and across the entire guideline) are detailed in <a href="#niceng205er2.appb">Appendix B</a>.</p><p>Declarations of interest were recorded according to <a href="https://www.nice.org.uk/Media/Default/About/Who-we-are/Policies-and-procedures/declaration-of-interests-policy.pdf" ref="pagearea=body&targetsite=external&targetcat=link&targettype=uri">NICE’s 2018 conflicts of interest policy</a>.</p></div><div id="niceng205er2.s1.1.4"><h4>Qualitative evidence</h4><div id="niceng205er2.s1.1.4.1"><h5>Included studies</h5><p>A single search was conducted to inform all of the review questions that formed part of this guideline. After removing duplicates, a total of 36,866 studies were identified from the search. After screening these references based on their titles and abstracts, 118 studies were obtained and reviewed against the inclusion criteria as described in the review protocol for barriers and facilitators for supporting care placement stability (<a href="#niceng205er2.appa">Appendix A</a>). Overall, 40 studies (39 original studies) were included (see <a href="#niceng205er2.appd">Appendix D</a> for full evidence tables).</p></div><div id="niceng205er2.s1.1.4.2"><h5>Excluded studies</h5><p>In total, 78 references were excluded because they did not meet the eligibility criteria. See <a href="#niceng205er2.appj">Appendix J</a> for a list of references for excluded studies, with reasons for exclusion.</p></div></div><div id="niceng205er2.s1.1.5"><h4>Summary of studies included in the qualitative synthesis</h4><p>Of the 40 included studies, there was an example of papers presenting the same population (<a class="bibr" href="#niceng205er2.s1.1.ref5" rid="niceng205er2.s1.1.ref5">Chase 2010</a>, <a class="bibr" href="#niceng205er2.s1.1.ref6" rid="niceng205er2.s1.1.ref6">2013</a>). In this textual summary these two studies will be counted as one to prevent duplication of themes.</p><p>The number of participants ranged from four to 258 across all studies. A sufficient number of UK-based studies were identified, meaning that the review focussed on UK-based evidence alone. All studies were published after 2010.</p><p>The means of data collection in 21 studies used individual semi-structured interviews, in addition, 13 studies used focus group methodology. Five studies were less clear and simply referred to “in-depth interviews” with an additional study using an inductive “mosaic approach” with interview questions developed by participants.</p><p>Most studies were among children in care, broadly. However, four studies were among children in foster care and two among children in residential care, specifically. One study concerned children in care receiving drug and alcohol treatment, three studies considered sub-populations with mental health problems, three studies concerned unaccompanied asylum seekers, two studies considered trafficked children, two studies considered parents in care including one study considered black and ethnic minority mothers in care, one study considered those who are LGBTQ, and one study considered those with criminal involvement. A broad age range was included in most studies, however two studies considered looked after children (<11 years old) and 16 studies considered looked after young people (>11 years old), specifically. Twelve studies did not report the age of the looked after children considered, often where the perspectives of carers or support staff alone had been canvassed.</p><p>No studies focused on looked after children who were babies and young children, who were placed out of area, or with Special Educational Needs.</p><p>Further study characteristics are presented in <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK575860/table/niceng205er2.tab2/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figniceng205er2tab2" rid-ob="figobniceng205er2tab2">table 2</a>.</p><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figniceng205er2tab2"><a href="/books/NBK575860/table/niceng205er2.tab2/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table 2" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figniceng205er2tab2" rid-ob="figobniceng205er2tab2"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK575860/table/niceng205er2.tab2/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK575860/table/niceng205er2.tab2/?report=previmg" alt="Table 2. characteristics of studies included in the qualitative synthesis for this review." /></a><div class="icnblk_cntnt"><h4 id="niceng205er2.tab2"><a href="/books/NBK575860/table/niceng205er2.tab2/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobniceng205er2tab2">Table 2</a></h4><p class="float-caption no_bottom_margin">characteristics of studies included in the qualitative synthesis for this review. </p></div></div><p>See <a href="#niceng205er2.appd">Appendix D</a> for full evidence tables</p></div><div id="niceng205er2.s1.1.6"><h4>Summary of the qualitative findings included in the evidence review</h4><p>Studies were critically appraised using the CASP qualitative study checklist.

The committee noted that qualitative evidence could not provide strong evidence of the effectiveness of any particular approach or intervention but rather could highlight the priorities, values, and perspectives of those involved in the care system as well as the perceived barriers and facilitators to successful care outcomes experienced by their carers and workers. Qualitative evidence could also help to answer the question of “how” interventions and statutory systems of care could be delivered, rather than “what” interventions or systems work best. The committee valued certain themes more highly if they had been derived from many studies or studies at lower risk of bias, if the meaning of the theme was unambiguous, and where themes had been drawn directly from looked after children and young people themselves (see below).</p></div><div id="niceng205er2.s1.1.9.1.2"><h5>The quality of the evidence</h5><p>The methodological quality of the studies included in this review were variable. Common reasons why qualitative evidence was marked down for quality included: unclear descriptions of the method of recruitment and selection of participants; unclear method of interview (for example, the topic guide used for semi-structured interview); unclear method of thematic analysis (for example, were multiple analysts used); and whether methods to validate findings were employed (for example, triangulation and respondent analysis). Some themes were marked down for quality where data had primarily come from studies with moderate or high risk of bias. In addition, certain themes were marked down for quality where few studies contributed to a theme, themes had become overly disparate (covering several subthemes), or there were contradictions in the direction of the theme.</p><p>The committee valued qualitative evidence that was direct from the population to which the recommendations would apply, that was recent, and particularly that was from the perspective of looked-after children and young people themselves. As such the qualitative evidence collected in this review was generally thought to be high quality since it was all UK-based, studies most commonly reported the perspective of looked after children and young people themselves, and all studies were published after 2010.</p><p>The qualitative work commissioned by NICE and performed by the University of Lancashire was considered the highest quality evidence since interview methods were tailored to address the review questions in this guideline, participants recruited into this study were also selected to provide a good cross-section across vulnerable groups of interest, and data was gathered very recently. In addition, this piece of work was rated high quality when assessed using CASP criteria (see evidence table for Larkins 2021, <a href="#niceng205er2.appd">Appendix D</a>).</p></div><div id="niceng205er2.s1.1.9.1.3"><h5>Benefits and harms</h5><div id="niceng205er2.s1.1.9.1.3.1"><h5>UCLan qualitative work</h5><p>Qualitative evidence was presented from the University of Lancashire with a particular focus on the barriers and facilitators to placement stability. The committee noted that there was significant overlap between the themes that arose in this review and the review question on positive relationships. The committee reflected that positive relationships were likely the best possible intervention to prevent placement instability. Themes that arose invoked the ideas of building trusting relationships, discussing and negotiating care plans, and consistent care which demonstrates an understanding of trauma. The committee considered an intervention that already exists in practice, that could help to address all of these issues: Life story work. Life story work had the potential to build relationships (one of the common qualitative themes was to do with sharing joint activities “doing things together”), was a trauma-focused technique, and could assist with discussing and negotiating care plans (by outlining felt priorities and experiences). However, life story work was considered neglected or poorly completed in practice. Therefore, the committee set out to establish a standard of life story work. This standard of life story work should be incorporated into a schedule of mandatory training for carers to equip carers for good quality work.</p><p>The committee initially discussed what life story work should consist of. The need for this work to take place in the context of a safe relationship was important. The committee recommended that life story work should consist of building a narrative that focuses first on the present (a young person’s identity, strengths, and any significant relationships); before moving onto the past (discussions of reasons for entering care in the first place); and finally turning thoughts to the future (discussions regarding building independence, hopes and dreams, and career plans). The committee then considered methods by which this may be achieved: techniques such as life mapping, use of pictures, art, written narratives, toys/play can be used to approach these discussions which should be compiled in one place (e.g. a ring binder) and built upon during regular life story sessions. As with other recommended interventions, the committee felt the approach should be flexible depending on the needs and response of the looked after person and should be a shared experience, in a setting preferred by the looked after person.</p><p>Considering those from subgroups of special interest also, the committee discussed the role that life story work could play in cultivating a positive self-image and identity, i.e. one that embraces the looked after child or young person’s ethnic, cultural or religious differences, as well as sexual identity and disabilities.</p><p>The committee also considered the occasions in which life story work may involve more persons present than the practitioner and the looked after person. The example of sibling relationships was raised, and about how at times it may be useful to perform life story work with siblings as a pair (for example, siblings may have had very difference perspectives of previous shared life events that need to be reconciled). The committee recommended that shared life story work should be carefully considered and planned to ensure the sibling relationships were not destabilised in the process. Particularly for complex situations such as these, the committee recommended that life story work should always have social work oversight, despite recognising that the work is not always performed by the social worker themselves.</p><p>In addition, the committee considered that the network around looked after children and young people comprised a community that needed to be primed to support ongoing life story work. As such, the idea of life story work and its importance needed to be expressed to the social work team, carers, educational staff, and birth family. This may be important so that broader social networks can be engaged in the work, for example, where sensitive or emotional information has been discussed with the child or young person during life story work, schools may need to be informed to be supportive. Likewise, involving birth families to encourage consistent narratives and reframing of previous events.</p><p>Finally, the committee made a recommendation regarding the prioritisation of life story work. As discussed previously, the committee felt that this intervention, despite being recommended, had been neglected in practice. Often only starting late into the care process and being poorly invested in. The reasons for this may be numerous - while there may be lack of professional time to devote to the work, it was possible for other significant adults with fewer time pressures to take on life story work. However, poor training and lack of understanding of the importance of life story work in others who may be expected to carry out the work (for example, foster carers) may obstruct good quality, impactful work. The committee discussed the importance of time for life story work being clearly set aside, with a named professional to ensure it happens, and for it to begin at the earliest opportunity following entry into care.</p><p>Qualitative findings from the University of Lancashire were clear about the importance of shared decision making. As part of this, a strong theme that emerged was that needs and priorities of carers are laid out transparently to the looked after person to help them make their own decisions. For example, the committee discussed occasions where an option for a new placement was being “dressed up” as great opportunity, when in reality the young person was being nudged into the placement due to financial pressures for the local authority, or because the foster carer had decided to terminate the placement. Rather, the committee recommended that reasons for placement breakdown should be discussed with emotional support and be built into ongoing life story work with accessible and age-appropriate communication.</p></div><div id="niceng205er2.s1.1.9.1.3.2"><h5>Qualitative review work RQ1.2</h5><p>The committee considered themes arising from the qualitative review of barriers and facilitators for placement stability. A moderate quality themes covered the desire for carers to be treated more like professionals. There was a perceived lack of agency/ and inclusion in input & information sharing as professionals for foster carers. The opposite was valued. As such the committee made a recommendation that carers should be valued as professionals and included as much as possible in multiagency working and decision making since they may have the most intimate knowledge of the looked after person.</p><p>Another moderate quality theme was the usefulness of peer support between carers, carers benefitted from the companionship, mutual support and problem-solving, that peer groups provided. Therefore, a recommendation was made that peer group support for carers should be facilitated by local authorities, and be regularly made available and accessible.</p><p>One moderate quality theme outlined the problem of resource constraints, stretched services, information gaps, and reactive care. Carers were often unaware of the different services available for support by the local authority, and therefore felt as though certain services had been kept hidden in an attempt to save costs. The committee therefore recommended that carers should be informed and updated about the support services available e.g. given a “menu” of support upfront, and prior to the beginning of placement, as this would enable them to negotiate the support needed for their placement, as well as empower them to act on a more equal footing with professionals.</p><p>Lastly, another moderate qualitative theme described how carers and looked after children and young people particularly valued care that was available, accessible, and reliable. As such, carers felt the benefit of knowing that support was available even out of hours for urgent problems, as a kind of “safety net”. The committee therefore recommended that local authorities make available out of hours support in helping carers deal with urgent problems that arise. However, the committee recognised that there was a need for any help sought outside of usual hours to be fed back into the care records so that the whole team could be aware; therefore the committee recommended that carers log any help sought outside of usual operational hours as part of their routine and urgent reports.</p></div></div></div><div id="niceng205er2.s1.1.9.2"><h5>Cost effectiveness and resource use</h5><p>No economic evidence was considered in relation to this review question given its focus on qualitative evidence. Overall, the committee felt that there was insufficient evidence of effectiveness from the quantitative evidence review (review question 1.1) in relation to costs to recommend any specific interventions for placement stability. However, the committee noted that in the short term, placement breakdown leads to increased social care case management work and the need for additional placement arrangements, some of which will be high-cost emergency placements. In addition, placement instability can contribute to further disruption of LACYP’s social and emotional relationships, sense of belonging and educational outcomes, with long-term consequences that were not captured in randomised controlled trials. Therefore, the committee made recommendations based on both the quantitative and qualitative evidence presented and discussed any expected cost impacts using their knowledge of the care system.</p><p>The committee discussed the importance of recognising carers as professionals and recommended that they be included in decision making and fully informed of all important information regarding the child they care for. Additionally, the committee recommended that carers be fully informed of any support services available to carers and LACYP within their local authority. It is unlikely that this recommendation will have a substantial resource impact, as its implementation would only require additional content to be communicated to carers.</p><p>The committee recommended that out of hours support should be available for carers and LACYP in the case of urgent issues. The committee discussed a range of possible ways in which out of hours support could be provided in order to allow local authorities to use a system that works best for them - both logistically and financially. One option was that out of hours support would consist of an “on-call” social worker. The committee noted that this would require a contract change for social workers, but agreed that it would be feasible to reallocate existing staff time from regular work hours to out-of-hours work. This contract change and reallocation would likely have cost implications but the committee felt that having social worker availability for these emergency situations would allow for serious issues to be addressed, and may avoid significant costs associated with those emergencies (e.g. self-harm, hospitalisation, placement breakdown, justice system costs).</p><p>The committee recommended that local authorities should facilitate accessible peer support for carers, for example hosting community groups or online forums. These community groups or forums would likely be peer-led and although there will be some costs to the local authority associated with setting up and monitoring these groups, the costs would be minimal and the benefits of this peer support are likely to outweigh the cost.</p><div id="niceng205er2.s1.1.9.2.1"><h5>UCLan qualitative work</h5><p>The committee heard qualitative evidence from the University of Lancashire with a focus on barriers and facilitators to placement stability, and made recommendations based on the findings presented. Since these recommendations were made without economic evidence, the committee used their knowledge and expertise to provide input on their expected resource impact.</p><p>The committee recommended that priorities and needs should be discussed transparently with the LACYP and that communication should be accessible and age-appropriate. This recommendation is not anticipated to have any resource impact as opportunities for this communication already exist in current practice.</p><p>The committee discussed multiple recommendations around life story work, which is mandated by statutory guidance for all LACYP with a plan for adoption and is already current practice, and these recommendations can be integrated into the process to improve how life story work is done. For example, the committee recommended that life story work should be prioritised and start at the earliest opportunity, which would simply require the professional/person conducting this work to initiate it soon after the LACYP enters care. The committee also recommended that life story work should support care placement and emotional stability, which are aspects of life story work that should be best practice and included in any training that the professional/person conducting this work would receive. Another recommendation made was that life story work should be considered when planning contact arrangements, which could easily be integrated into current practice by keeping the child’s social worker informed of any important issues that may affect contact.</p><p>The committee recommended that training also be provided for the professionals/people conducting life story work (e.g. carers, social workers) where necessary to ensure a consistent approach. This training would not be associated with a resource impact as it could be incorporated into existing training frameworks and draw on materials that are freely available. The committee acknowledged that this may require another area of the existing training frameworks to be altered or removed, however given life story work is mandated by statutory guidance, the committee believed that training for appropriate delivery should be prioritised. Adjustments required to incorporate life story work considerations into existing training frameworks may also incur some administrative costs, but these were thought to be minimal and would be outweighed by the increased benefits achieved from the improved delivery of life story work to all LACYP. The committee also recommended that a social worker should oversee any life story work, even in cases where it is being conducted by another professional. Such an approach is anticipated to have minimal resource implications, as it is already current practice for life story work to be conducted by a social worker or in cases where another professional is leading the work, a social worker would simply need to be informed of the content of the life story work being conducted.</p><div id="niceng205er2.box1" class="box boxed-text-box whole_rhythm hide-overflow"><p>This evidence review supports <a href="#niceng205er2.lt15">recommendations 1.3.1</a> to <a href="#niceng205er2.lt17">1.3.3</a>, <a href="#niceng205er2.lt22">1.3.12</a>, <a href="#niceng205er2.lt18">1.2.18</a>, <a href="#niceng205er2.lt19">1.5.15</a> to <a href="#niceng205er2.lt37">1.5.25</a>.

<b>Peer support for carers</b>
|

</p>
|
|
<p>Carers benefitted from mutual support and problem-solving among peer groups. And from engaging wider social networks e.g. family. Use of internet systems could help connect social workers and broader foster parent groups. Specialist peer support groups could be particularly useful for carers in specialist placements (e.g. unaccompanied asylum seekers and parent-and-child placements)</p>

<p>Resource constraints, high case load, lack of funding led to stretched services, information gaps, and reactive not responsive care (“fire-fighting”). Lower caseloads led to more direct care. Foster carers reported having to fight for resources e.g. an allocated social worker, respite care, or other placement support services. Carers felt that they were not informed of all services available upfront for support. Voluntary organisations were turned to too fill in the gaps left in statutory care.</p>

<p>Availability and reliability of support. Foster carer’s valued accessibility of their link workers, particularly where the matter is urgent. Out of hours availability (safety net) was appreciated and planned respite care (structured pattern of breaks). Calls and text were preferred to email for access. Proactive allocated social workers were appreciated (ones which planned ahead and took initiative with regular contact – “staying in touch”). Absence and delay of action interpreted as lack of care, e.g. delay waiting for mental health services/ interventions which may impact placement stability. Flexibility of work, reduced case load, and administrative support could help practitioners be available as and when needed.</p>

|
<p>LACYP wished to be included in, listened to, and supported in decision making processes (shared decision making). Failing to do so had implications for placement stability. Unsuccessful attempts to influence events resulted in apathy and disengagement from care processes. For example, review meetings were aided by good preparation, direct questions, space in the meeting to check understanding and for the LACYP to be heard, and agency with decisions such as location and time of review meetings. At a higher level, children in care councils were used to influence policy, structural change, and recruitment. However, failure to recruit hard to reach groups and financial concerns were a barrier to these. Children with a lack of agency may try to control their environments by other means e.g. behavioural problems.</p>

<p>Bespoke care tailored to the specific needs of the child. For example, the usefulness of good placement matching with carers based on personality (“clicking”) or culture/language in the case of UAS (although this was not always necessary, particularly when carers made an effort to bridge the cultural gap). Meeting the carer before moving in was helpful. Participants felt the approach of one intervention or type of care for all was not appropriate – e.g. accessible options for those with learning disabilities. Inclusion in decision making was useful to support this.</p>

<p>Importance of better multiagency working and information sharing. For example: proper incorporation of advocacy services into review meetings, sharing of information between social workers and IROs to aid preparation for review meetings, shared information between social workers and link workers. For groups where specialist knowledge was needed, the need for a worker or team with specialist knowledge to contact was suggested (e.g. unaccompanied asylum seekers). However, inappropriate use of voluntary services was a fear.</p>

<b>The needs of asylum-seeking children were felt to be considerably different to those of other looked after children.</b>
|

</p>
|
|
<p>Upon arrival UAS experienced a series of bewildering and destabilising systems of surveillance and control. For many, learning English was a starting point to order, routine and security which enabled more control e.g. solicitors, healthcare, education. For carers, bridging the communication barrier was important. Other areas of need included – cultural needs (religion and food); needs related to adjusting to life in England (e.g. learning to use a new currency and engaging in the English education system); advocacy needs often related to accessing services; needs pertaining to the asylum seeking process, (including recovery from trauma, emotional support and practical assistance to attend appointment). The needs of asylum seeking children were felt to be considerably different to those of other looked after children so carers felt the need for training (which could be as little as one day). Information was also lacking, even from social workers who had little expertise themselves. There was a need for an information network for fostering UAS.</p>

<b>The primacy of the natural family for carers, despite the desire to treat foster child “as one of own” – implications for placement matching</b>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The primacy of the natural family for carers, despite the desire to treat foster child “as one of own”. Benefit of careful matching of existing birth children to foster placement (e.g. older/younger child). Shared decision making that includes the birth child. Rivalry for attention between foster child and birth child, and need for different parenting techniques, deteriorating relationship between carer and birth children - a source of feeling overwhelmed. Implications for placement stability. Positive changes could also occur for existing family relationships as a result of fostering.</p>

<b>Unique stresses for carers in parent-and-child placements</b>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Most of these stresses were associated with the tension inherent in the role, between nurturing a vulnerable mother and contributing to the assessment which decides whether she will leave with her child. Every carer and social worker cited times when, either implicitly or explicitly, the outcome of assessments had been decided by the LA before placing the mother-and-child, with the placement merely satisfying court proceedings. The desire to advocate for a mother whom the carer felt needed additional time and therapeutic input to develop “good enough parenting” skills was a huge source of stress, and the feelings of powerlessness that accompanied this were problematic. For other carers, very deep issues were raised by their involvement with such troubled families; one couple talked about their 18-year-old son having a breakdown a year after a baby left the family for adoption. Another older carer talked about the pain she experienced when a baby moved on to adoption at 4 months. Aspects of training for this role that carers would have welcomed included: How to manage endings—when a baby is removed; Sharing logs with mothers in a positive way; Working with mothers with learning disabilities and autism.</p>

<p><i>“I had a very disturbed mum when she first arrived, and for the first three days couldn’t go into the kitchen to make the bottles, cos she was just so overwhelmed … there was a massive history of DV, so she didn’t want to go into the kitchen if K (carer’s husband) was in there. And that was really difficult to overcome. I had to work really hard with her initially, and all you’ve got is a social worker coming and saying “So, you’re refusing to feed the baby.” You just think “Back off!” And a few days later, this same social worker just said “Tell me when. Tell me when to pull the plug, and she’s out!” And that was his exact words. And I said “No, no, give us some time, we’re working on it.” And do you know, she went on to do 7 months and went home with the baby. But they were prepared to write her off.” (Foster Carer, Female, 60s)</i>.</p>

<i>“Very very different, very specialist … sometimes they will say “we don’t want you doing this for the mum. They are to do it themselves and you are to record everything” … I think that’s quite off-putting for someone who’s nurturing by nature.” (Foster Carer, Female, 40s)</i>
