AnnotationThis book is about some of the ideas and services that are being tested around the country, to strengthen community-based services and increase the scope of care provided outside hospitals. It includes case studies of examples of resource centres, polyclinics (or urgent care centres) and hospitals at home, as examples of some of the experiments taking place. These reflect current concerns of participants in a series of King's Fund workshops on primary care development, who are aiming for a better fit between patients' needs and the resources available in different settings.
