AnnotationIn 1999, the National Council on Ageing and Older People commissioned a postal survey of all long-term residential care facilities in Ireland to determine: whether facilities had quality initiatives in operation; providers' views and aspirations for future provision of long-term care, also their views on introduction of a national quality monitoring policy. This report comprises an overview of development of long-term residential care in Ireland; reports on the survey; presents the framework for developing quality in long-term care; and reports on a seminar held in May 2000 hosted by the Council entitled "Fostering quality in long-term residential care for older people in Ireland". The report outlines conditions for successful implementation. (RH).
