| Annotation | Reablement services save councils money by helping service users to regain independence. But, as public finances tighten, will local authorities be able to find the investment required to make them work? Examples of reablement services include providing personal care, help with activities for daily living (ADLs) and other practical tasks, usually for up to six weeks. This article includes a Leicestershire case study which demonstrates the reablement's value financially and for an individual's independence. This is one of a series of articles in this issue of Community Care on the theme of surviving the cuts. (RH). |
