| Annotation | In carrying out the research on which this article is based, the authors aimed to identify the place which reminiscence work occupies in residential and nursing home settings, by talking to staff about their practice and work contexts. Drawing on this evidence, the authors argue that the ways in which reminiscence work is accounted for by the staff provides a basis for highlighting different approaches to and therefore types of care provision. They also argue that the range of skills required suggests a need for radical rethinking of the values and knowledge embedded in training for care work with older people. (RH). |
