I complained about refusal of core assessment/carers assessment and attitude of social worker that I spoke to on 30th May (email so received same day). I received an acknowledgment letter but nothing else. According to the complaints procedure it should take 20 working days max and it's now been 25. I emailed the complaints dpt on Friday who apologised and said the manager dealing with it has been off sick but back now and dealing with it.
According to the government guidelines it says I can escalate it to stage 2 once past the 20 day deadline and they should tell me this (which they haven't). The question is does anyone have experience of this and would I be better off waiting or requesting it escalating to stage 2?
Thanks in advance.
