The Social Care Summit NORTH 2025 was a fantastic event, bringing together sector leaders, operators, and innovators to discuss the future of social care. At Candesic, we were thrilled to take part in these critical conversations and connect with so many passionate individuals driving change in the sector. A few key themes resonated throughout the discussions: ✅ Resident-led care: At the heart of social care is the resident. Ensuring care is truly patient-led remains a priority for providers and policymakers alike. ✅ Empowering staff: Social care is a people-first sector, and its success depends on a supported and fulfilled workforce. Addressing staff well-being, both physically and mentally, is crucial for retention and quality of care. ✅ Technology as an enabler: While digitalisation in the sector is still in its early stages, adopting and investing in technology is vital, as it can significantly enhance resident safety, improve staff efficiency, and help operators sustain their businesses in an evolving financial landscape. A huge thank you to everyone we met and spoke with—we look forward to continuing these discussions.

For further conversations, feel free to reach out to Mario El Asmar, Associate at Candesic, who attended the event. #SocialCare #HealthInvestment #CareInnovation #SocialCareSummit2025

Senior Partner at Candesic, Dr Michelle Tempest explores why dementia care needs urgent reform in February’s latest edition of LaingBuisson CareMarkets. With painful waits for dementia diagnosis taking up to a year on the NHS, Michelle reasons that the time for change is now! The process of diagnosis needs to become more efficient, effective, and empathetic. Michelle’s article expands on the research from Dr Brad Dickerson, Prof Christopher Kipps, and Prof Sumeet Mahajan, whose work has advanced improved diagnostics which is contributing to earlier, more accurate detection. Private pay memory clinics such as Dementech Neurosciences, Phoenix Hospital Group, The Edinburgh Practice, Parkside Private Hospital, Re:Cognition Health Brain and Mind Experts and ReMind UK may be part of the answer, but how can further innovation into diagnostics and therapies light up opportunities to disrupt and improve this sector? See the article below and visit our website to listen to a podcast based on the article, and let us know what you think. https://lnkd.in/dxvfPnDu To learn more about Candesic, send us a LinkedIn message or visit our website.
