Originally published in 1984 and concentrating on the West Midlands area of the UK, this book describes the innovations that were made and all that was involved in bringing about changes in care provision for elderly people. The areas covered include hospital-based geriatric and psychogeriatric services, changes in the public housing sector, the development of a domiciliary physiotherapy service and community nursing teams for the terminally ill. These new attitudes and practical treatment changes succeeded in radically altering the climate of care and were the result of small innovatory groups of care-providers.
