AnnotationThis information pack comprises a main pamphlet, four fact sheets, seven Infosheets, and an offprint of an article from EAGLE (Oct/Nov 1999) by Philip Spiers, "The economy of choice". It sets out the pros and cons on the legal and financial aspects of nursing home and residential care and their alternatives. The fact sheets provide brief information on choosing a home, meeting costs, and legal matters. The Infosheets consider the following: issues on choice and finance; treatment of residents' property; the legal framework of community care; local authority charging procedures for permanent accommodation of older people; paying for nursing home or residential care (deprivation of assets); immediate care plan case studies; and treatment of couples. It should be noted that information concerning legal and financial matters is based on an understanding of legislation at the time of publication. (RH).
