The book is a much-needed revised and updated edition of Elders and
the law (PEPAR Publications, 1993). It describes the legal
framework for working with older people following the National
Health Service and Community Care Act 1990 and the modernising
agenda in health and social care. Covering broadly the same ground
as the first edition, the length has been considerably expanded to
enable topics to be dealt with more comprehensively. It covers the
range of legal issues affecting the welfare and financial security
of older people in the community and residential settings, and
emphasises the empowering nature of legal knowledge. It also
describes and explains the application of law and policy relating
to older people in the context of social work practice. Written by
a social worker and a lawyer, the book highlights the opportunities
for interprofessional working and combines professional
perspectives on: * providing health and social care services in the
community; * housing needs and entering residential care; * dealing
with financial matters; * end of life issues. Older people and the
law is aimed at all professionals working with older people, but
particularly social workers. Its clarity of style means that older
people themselves and carers will find it accessible. BASW/Policy
Press series The BASW/Policy Press partnership provides the very
best in accessible and practical high-quality resources for social
work professionals and students. For other titles in this series,
