Domiciliary Services for the Elderly

First published in 1984, the title looks at the field of elderly care and domiciliary work from the perspective of social services. Starting with early influences that helped shape the development of Domiciliary Services, the author goes on to look at how the service has developed over the years and where it falls short.
