Population aging is challenging countries around the globe to adapt
their public policy responses to the new world. Long-term care is a
relevant topic today both because of the rapid growth in long-term
care needs in every country and the lack of responses from
governments. The Future of Long-term Care explores some issues
related to the implementation of long-term care responses in
different countries. Looking at six different cases, the book
highlights the need to foster an urgent debate in the area, as well
as emphasizing the need for action in the coming years. The
examples analysed show common problems faced by countries trying to
respond to their people's needs, as well as the dissimilar stages,
contexts, and paths followed by each one in the endeavour for
providing long-term care services to the population. Whether the
analysis is carried out in countries with well-established
long-term care systems or in places where the debate is just
starting, the book proves that this is an area in which many
challenges remain. Learning lessons from others is important but
providing a space for countries to frame their problems and propose
their solutions is crucial. This book contributes to fill this gap
and contribute to a debate that is just starting in many places
around the world.
