AnnotationAs our population of over 65s increases, as regulation in the care industry develops and as our compensation culture grows, it is more critical now than ever that the care industry is ready to meet the challenges of 21st century Britain. To do so, knowledge of vital areas of law, regulation and practice is pivotal. This paper aims to provide a practical guide to the types of day-to-day pitfalls which face the sector, to recognise potential problems before they arise or indeed escalate, and to deal with crises in a controlled manner, should such a situation develop. The paper relates specifically to dealings with the Scottish Commission for the Regulation of Care (known also as the Care Commission) since its inception in 2002. (RH).
