It doesn't matter how good police oversight is if the training sucks. No department is gonna fire all their officers. See: Tyre Nichols officers, that police department lowered hiring standards to make even prior felonies wavierable a year or two prior to that incident (because no one wants to be a cop due to the bad pr).

Social services have gigantic waste, bureaucratic rule problems and for many social services jobs the real training is outside of the governments purview (degrees). So the issues with personnel quality aren't as easily correctible by better training like for police (though it still plays a part).
