Based on a large study over 3 years of clients, carers and others. Discusses the extent to which greater public spending on the neediest persons living at home will reduce the need for expenditure on residential care. Looks at targeting of services and discusses how this could be improved. Contains chapters on interagency cooperation, case management, risk and decision making, and innovation. Finally, suggests ways forward, including raising productivities and matching resources to needs.
