AnnotationQuality of life and quality of outcome are central to policy and practice. This workbook is organised to take specialist housing and care providers through the process of assessing quality of life in particular settings. The workbook contains a set of research instruments to assess the quality of life people have in specialist housing and care settings and instructions on how to use them. There are five steps in the process, which are covered as follows: preparing and planning; applying the research instruments; the research instruments; analysing the responses; and reflecting, reporting and preparing an action plan for improvement.
