内容説明
The stereotype of elderly persons as frail and incapable individuals, dependent on the rest of community, is now being countered by an increasingly educated and informed lobby of older people. Australia's population is about to enter a phase of rapid ageing, with important consequences for housing, health and welfare services. There have been changes in the health status of different segments of the aged population, and the health services that are of importance to them require critical review. This book provides comprehensive coverage of current and future policies and is essential reading for all students of social work and social welfare, community medicine, health and public policy, as well as all those who work in occupations that affect the wellbeing of elderly people. Sidney Sax is the Foundation President of the Australian Association of Gerontology and "member-at-large" of the Australian Council on the Ageing. He has chaired numerous enquiries into state health services and advised on the development of social welfare and public health policies.
