AnnotationReablement services must be designed as a route to greater independence and not reliance on care. This article considers the benefits of reablement in helping older people to regain the ability to to do things for themselves and thereby improve their quality of life. However, care workers and their managers do need to explain the ethos of reablement as a means also of reducing an older person's need for continuing support. (RH).
