Points to consider
Staff get short staffed sometimes when people call in sick and it's hard to find cover quickly.
Staff said they were sometimes short staffed. They told us that when staff were 'off sick' the service could not always get replacement staff especially at short notice. The manager said there were issues with high staff sickness which they were addressing.
