Report investigating Europe's looming crisis in care for older people. Argues that family and state care is in decline at the very moment when the number of people needing such care is increasing. Looks at disability and dependency; family care; the pressures of caring; support for carers in the European Union; the changing ability of the family to care; changing attitudes towards care; and European social policy. Also contains a chapter comparing social provision in the EC member states.
