Annotation | This book emphasises the consumer approach which is required in developing high quality care for older people. It examines the contribution of each care sector - primary health care, community care, private sector care, and hospital care - to quality services. The contribution of the multidisciplinary team - doctors, nurses, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, and social workers - and the quality of education and training are analysed. The last part deals with managing change, evaluating quality, and future developments in care of older people. |
