AnnotationWritten for the Technology Strategy Board, this report outlines the case for a revolution in long term care, and captures some of the supporting material that has aided the development of the Board's 'long term care revolution' programme. It includes evidence about the views of older people and their carers in the UK, lessons from abroad, the implications for care industry or providers, and makes recommendations to government and industry leaders. The authors identify practical evaluated examples of care provision; examine the extent to which older people can be at the heart of any decisions on their care; and discuss vignettes which describe levels of disability and care needs.
