Annotation | This volume consists of the seven research reports commissioned by the Independent Review of Residential Care chaired by Gillian Wagner. It was commissioned by the Department of Health and Social Security, in 1985 to undertake "to review the role of residential care and the range of services given in statutory, voluntary and private residential establishments within the personal social services in England and Wales; to consider, having regard to the practical constraints and other relevant developments, what changes, if any, are required to enable the residential care sector to respond effectively to changing social needs; and to make recommendations accordingly." The Review was based at the National Institute for Social Work throughout its two year term of office. This research provided the necessary background knowledge and understanding to the Review's deliberations. Such research is believed by the Review to also provide a useful contribution to the history and development of present day residential services. (KJ). |
