Description

With the process of dehospitalization and deinstitutionalization gathering momentum, there is an increasing emphasis in the UK on community care.

This book should be of interest to student nurses (Project 2000 and degree levels), student midwives, health visitors, district and practice nurses, and youth, community and social workers.
