"This authoritative guide lays bare the highly contentious issue of when adults with continuing healthcare needs are eligible for free NHS care and funding, rather than for self-funded social care. Accessibly highlighting the letter and spirit of the law for a range of practitioners, the book's A-Z format provides quick reference to legislation, guidance and cases. It also contains a detailed analysis of NHS continuing healthcare over the past 30 years. This is critical to understanding its complex, confusing rules and counter-intuitive outcomes. The book is essential reading to assist with making continuing healthcare decisions that are fair, lawful and transparent" -- Taken from back cover.
