When assessing staffing, it is not only formal carers who need to be included, but also the call centre staff and response teams on which telecare networks crucially depend. The demand for staff is particularly high at the beginning of a telecare investment project when this human infrastructure needs to be set up, the telecare equipment installed and everyone trained to use it.
