Health and Social Care Handbook by Caroline Bielanska

Health and Social Care Handbook by Caroline Bielanska

Provides an explanation of health and social care law. This title outlines the duties, rights and remedies for users of health and social care, their carers and advisers, including: the principles and responsibilities of the NHS and social services; the role of education and housing departments; and, complaints procedures, disputes and remedies.

'This book will provide a useful reference tool for those advisers dealing with clients who are users of social services or the NHS..[they] will find much of their time is saved by having all the relevant reference material contained in one place.' Adviser '...it is a tribute to these authors that the traveller now has to hand a serviceable guidebook...it is hard to see any lawyer in this field not benefiting by having this readily accessible book to hand.' New Law Journal 'The style of writing is clear and authoritative with detailed references to the government guidance and the statutory legislation. The layout of the book is clear, with detailed references to additional sources of information worthy of an academic textbook but the text is still very much aimed at the busy practitioner trying to advise on and deal with this complex area of law. This book would be an informative and immensely helpful point of reference.' PS Magazine, December 2006
