Annotation | There is a shortage of examples of arrangements and practice approaches that focus on mental well-being in black and minority ethnic (BME) older people. This article draws on a practice enquiry bringing together accounts of social care practice across different social care settings from four parts of the UK, away from highly populated areas that have been the focus of most previous research. Over 80 practitioners, managers, older people and carers were interviewed over 2009-10. They described and reflected on the support for older people from BME backgrounds, particularly focusing on how they might promote mental well-being. (JL). |
