Description
The Personal Social Services fully and critically considers the wide-ranging changes taking place in these services. It focuses on changes in the way the services are delivered, and the impact of these changes on the users of the services and their relatives, households and carers, as well as on the workforce involved in providing services. Divided into six parts The Personal Social Services examines the nature and structure of the personal social services in Britain and provides an historical overview to the changes that have happened. The text goes on to evaluate the current situation and discusses possible scenarios for the future based on current trends in the services. The Personal Social Services is essential reading for students taking degree courses in social policy and social work and is a useful text for students of sociology, politics and criminal justice. It will also prove an invaluable resource for practitioners in the field and to staff and carers involved in the health and social care field in particular.
