Produktbeschreibung

This book addresses the conscious and unconscious dynamics and systems at work in different community care contexts from the point of view of both practice and management, with the aim of improving both. It aims to bridge the gap between practitioners and policy makers, and encourage reflective practice. Contributors consider the context of development of community care and fundamental concepts, practice and dynamics of care in a wide range of specific settings, how management is affected by practice and how care systems are designed. Tried and tested interventions are presented to demonstrate how users, staff and managers can function more effectively in community settings. Contributors include: R.D. Hinshelwood, Jack Nathan, Tony McCaffrey, Simon Biggs, Naomi Landau, Michael Wallbank, Trini Navarro, Helen Morgan and Lorenzo Grespi.
