AnnotationLack of consensus on the way forward in developing health and social care services for older people has hindered progress in joint commissioning between health and social services. The author describes the difficulties, and suggests ways to more effective partnerships: work on existing links; developing leadership and support; joint purchasing; an emphasis on commissioning; and thinking about evaluation.
