Annotation | Written in plain, everyday English, this book is about what it is like to be an inspector, and what it's like to be a provider of residential care. While not about what it is like to be a resident, it is about how best to find out what it is like being a resident. Based on the author's experience as an inspector in the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham and on case studies of five inspection units, the book looks at the image and reality of social care inspection. The aim is to help bring about improvements in the way people inspect - before, during and after an inspection. Scattered throughout the book are boxes highlighting good practice, and examples of local authority publications, publicity and correspondence. (RH). |
