| Annotation | This report presents results of a questionnaire survey circulated to participants of a seminar on preventative services for older people held in September 1996. It briefly outlines the reasons why preventative services are important in the UK in the late 1990s. It examines questions on the definition of preventative services; obstacles to well-being in ageing; the nature of preventative services; services currently available; barriers to wider service provision; knowledge of effectiveness of services; and key messages for policy makers. |
