AnnotationProduced by Kent Social Services for local and national application as part of a Department of Health (DH) Project to develop services for black and minority ethnic (BME) older people, this guide presents best practice checklists for frontline practitioners and carers. It is designed as a tool to enable practitioners to incorporate a holistic approach to care planning and assessment. Following an introduction, the sections cover: the care management process; cross cultural understanding; the main legal and statutory requirements; background information on cultural and religious groups; and a list of further reading. The guide was produced with the following partner organisations: Bromley Social Services, Suffolk Social Services, Presentation Housing Association, and North Kent Gateway Partnership. An interactive CD-ROM for training purposes which was to have followed this publication is not now being produced. (RH).
