Résumé :
|
This topical new book looks at some of the current problems and opportunities in managing Community Health Services. It explores in some detail the problems of developing service strategies, the internal management of community health services, and how community health services might work productively with local authorities, community health initiatives, consumers and the public at large. These issues are explored and placed within the context of the introduction of "general management" in the NHS and the increased public awareness of health issues. The book adopts a unique approach in that it successfully combines socio-political analysis with a managerial approach. There are major sections devoted to policy and management issues, intersectoral collaboration, public participation and consumerism. (R.A.).
