| Annotation | Information on the impacts of services on the lives of users and carers is essential, to meet requirements of emerging policy initiatives, including: performance reviews and Best Value; the continuing emphasis on greater responsiveness of services to users and carers; emphasis on outcomes rather than inputs and procedures; and the need for an evidence-based approach to practice. SPRU's Outcomes Programme is funded by the Department of Health, to develop and test frameworks for collecting and using information on the outcomes of social care in routine practice. This research summary outlines SPRU's work on outcomes of social care specifically with younger disabled people and their carers. (RH). |
