Annotation | Five articles on the topic "personal assistance" which in the United States is a term that emerged from the disability community to describe the help that people with self-care limitations need on a regular basis. In the United Kingdom this is usually described as social care or live-in care. This journal issue looks at how personal assistance in the US operates, particularly in comparison with similar care provision provided in Sweden and in England. Articles on the Swedish and English care provision are included in this issue. (KJ/RH). |
