With over 500,000 people in residential, nursing and dual registered homes across the country, there has been remarkably little research on the role of managers in the long-term care sector. This important study investigates the range of tasks which such managers perform and the skills they need.

The authors look in detail at:

• Managers and management in the long-term care sector
• Policy change and the changing role of managers
• The future way for training
  Key issues and recommendations are drawn out, which focus on future training and the quality assurance framework needed in a new regulatory system.

The authors discuss the crucial questions as to what this will cost and who will pay.
