Publisher's Synopsis
The Independent Wagner Development Group was formed in May 1988 in order to ensure that issues concerning residential care identified in the report "A Positive Choice" (ISBN 0 11 701062 6) were neither forgotten nor ignored. This companion volume draws together the work of the Wagner Development Group over the last five years. It includes an account of the four research programmes within the Department of Health's Caring in Homes Initiative, which have produced practical guidelines to ensure quality of care.
