Description

Towards Quality Care: Outcomes for Older People in Care Homes provides a detailed evaluation of residential and nursing home care. Published by Routledge in association with PSSRU, this book identifies the specific factors that determine the quality of life for older individuals moving into care environments. By examining the link between psychological well-being and the types of care received, this volume offers deep insights into the lived experiences of residents. The research is built on a longitudinal study of UK care homes, involving interviews with new entrants at three different stages following their admission. This approach allows for a clear understanding of how care experiences evolve over time. To provide a complete picture, the study also includes perspectives from care staff and managers. This makes the book a valuable resource for those studying the social sciences, medical anthropology, or professional care management. It offers a grounded look at how care home settings impact the well-being of older people through direct evidence and professional feedback.
