The growing number of very old people and their present and future
demands upon existing health and social service resources is of
major concern among practitioners and policy makers throughout
Europe. This book makes an important contribution to the debate
about the future of care for this population group from a
cross-national perspective. Policies in most countries stress the
need for older people to remain in their own homes for as long as
possible. Home care services, in particular home help, are one of
the most important ingredients in the service mix necessary to
achieve this goal. Chapters on individual countries describe the
range and nature of service provision and discuss the effectiveness
of home care policies and the major issues facing the future of
home care provision. Three chapters address the issues from a
comparative perspective, highlighting similarities and differences
in provision and policies, and exploring ways of explaining the
major differences.
