A book ideal for supplementary reading
This book is published as an introductory reader? Students will need to be familiar with academic writing and the workplace environment to be able to utilise the information therein. There are sections of the book we will refer our students to and make reference in our teaching: chapter 6 on the carers viewpoint and section 3 - approaches, containing chapters 16-23. This information will be utilised within various courses offered within the Foundation degree in Health and Social care as well as in my level 5 module - Expansion of Practice

This is a very useful book, easy to read and understand. I have recommended it to the students particularly the chapter on nursing homes. I have also suggested we have it in the library.
This is a useful textbook outlining the main points within helathcare today. It is well set out with current ideas expressed through the chapters.
I have no objection to you using my words but would want them to be credited to me and my institution please.
There areseveral chapters in this book that are well worth a read and I will be recommending it to some of my students. The NHS is currently undergoing change and until we know the direction it is going in it is hard to recommend this text as essential reading but I will happily use the relevant chapters to inform students.
