Description
Long-Term Conditions explores the complex issues surrounding long-term illness and its impact on individuals, families, careers, and healthcare services. This book presents diverse perspectives from those who use health and social care services, policymakers, and practitioners.
The authors probe assumptions about the experience of long-term poor health and what constitutes good care, using a range of research methods to get to the heart of the matter. The aim is to challenge readers to think critically about existing policy and provision, and inspire change based on sound evidence and multi-professional working.
