There have been cases where assessments have inappropriately been done over the phone or not at all and been claimed for as face to face assessments.
One nurse was even drunk at work and another thought it appropriate to start slagging off claimants by saying they were lazy and taking their disabilities. After complaints and pressure, both were dismissed.
There are certainly staff problems and there has been ever since the days of Supplementary Benefit in the sixties.
There's an excellent book about this called 'DHSS In Crisis".
