Description
This book examines various types of neighbourhood-based care and relates them to the complex issues of commmunity care policy, contributing to the debate fostered by the Griffiths Report. The book looks at a number of specific issues of contemporary concern, including the supposed superior quality of voluntary care, the argument that it has inherent limitations, and the relative merits of alternative models of neighbourhood care. The approach throughout is to explore a wide variety of perspectives and ideologies - ensuring that neighbourhood care is considered not only from an official and professional viewpoint but one which takes account of helpers, clients, care workers and local residents.
