Sumario: | As ageing societies are pushing a growing number of frail old people into needing care, delivering quality long-term care services – care that is safe, effective, and responsive to needs – has become a priority for governments.

This book offers evidence and examples of useful experiences to help policy makers, providers and experts measure and improve the quality of long-term care services. |
