Annotation | This is an open learning unit, designed to help healthcare professionals and students to explore the psychological aspects of caring. The 'mixed economy' refers to the provision of care by statutory services, the private sector and voluntary groups. Issues of caring are examined from two viewpoints: intrinsic - the impact of the caring role on the psychology of the individual; and extrinsic - the impact of the individual and group psychology on roles and relationships. |
