AnnotationThe bid to create a fairer system of long-term care for older people involves a lot more than the question of whether personal care should be free. Determining older people's needs for registered nursing, and allocating them to the appropriate band of care, will only become clear over time. Intermediate care and other services that promote independence also offer the potential of improving quality of care. (RH).
