Empowerment or responsibilisation
In many well-developed primary care systems patients increasingly receive care from multiple clinicians within networks of providers rather than a single general practice clinician. This makes formal coordination between clinicians and providers necessary and requires informal 'articulation work' from both clinicians and patients to organise coordination of tasks across episodes of care. This is often hidden 'behind the scenes'. We used qualitati…
To be or not to be
This study explores how pharmacists legitimise the expansion of their clinical work and considers its impact on pharmacists' professional identity work. In the context of pharmacy in the English NHS, there has been an ongoing policy shift towards pharmacists moving away from 'medicines supply' to patient-facing, clinical work since the 1950s. Pharmacists are continuously engaging in 'identity work' and 'boundary work' to reflect the expansion of …
Implementing Consumer Choice in Long‐term Care
In common with many advanced welfare states, England has increasingly relied on consumerist principles to deliver both greater quality and improved efficiency in the long‐term care system. The Individual Budget (IB) pilots marked the next step in this process, through a new system of funding whereby greater control of resources is given to service users, in lieu of direct in‐kind care provision. IBs have the potential to transform the market for …
Assessing the Role of Increasing Choice in English Social Care Services
This article aims to explore the concept of choice in public service policy in England, illustrated through findings of the Individual Budgets (IB) evaluation. The evaluation tested the impact of IBs as a mechanism to increase choice of access to and commissioning of social care services around the individual through a randomised trial and explored the experiences and perspectives of key groups through a large set of interviews. The article prese…
Modernising social care services for older people
In common with other developed countries at the end of the 20th century, modernising public services was a priority of the United Kingdom (UK) Labour administration after its election in 1997. The modernisation reforms in health and social care exemplified their approach to public policy. The authors were commissioned to examine the evidence base for the modernisation of social care services for older people, and for this purpose conducted a syst…
Are different forms of care-management for older people in England associated with variations in case-mix, service use and care-managers' use of time
This paper reports one component of an evaluation of the different forms, types and models of local authority social services' care-management for older people that have emerged in England since 1993. It was undertaken at a time of a growing debate about whether care-management differentiated those with simple from complex needs, and whether for the latter a multi-disciplinary approach was required. A sample representative of different approaches…
Challenging Professional Roles
The bulk of care in the community is carried out by lay carers. Recent policy initiatives to support them in the United Kingdom are outlined. There remains evidence of significant gaps in support from professional health and social‐care workers including community nurses. This paper reports three studies of lay carers: those caring for older people, carers of technology‐dependent children, and home‐care workers involved in the “direct payments” s…
Nursing Homes in England and their Capacity to Provide Rehabilitation and Intermediate Care Services
The numbers of older people living in residential and nursing home care in the UK have risen exponentially since the early 1980s when the closure of long–stay geriatric wards and changes in social security funding of care home places led to a rapid expansion of the care home industry. While the implementation of the 1990 National Health Service (NHS) and Community Care Act shifted the responsibility for the commissioning and funding of these serv…
Bridging the gap
This paper reports on a study of disabled people with receiving Direct Payments who were able to purchase assistance in ways that cross conventional boundaries between 'health' and 'social' services. Indeed, most of the Direct Payment recipients used the term 'personal care' to describe a range of help that extended right across this conventional divide. Nevertheless, most of the users reported purchasing help with aspects of health care through …
