Austerity's impacts on the healthcare, social care and education professions are under the spotlight in this important book. From scarcer resources to greater stresses, and falling training budgets to rising risks, it charts how policies and cuts have compromised workers' ability to undertake their professional roles. It combines research and practice experience to assess the extent of de-professionalisation in recent years, and how workers have responded.
