AnnotationIn this response to the Government's consultation paper on financing 'long-term care', the IHA welcomes, in principle, the concepts considered in the document. However, it believes strongly in there being an open debate exploring other options: there should be strategy which meets the needs of many more strata of society. It concludes that the principle behind any move towards encouraging self provision in long term care should include a desire to empower individuals to access the type and quality of care that they will want to receive in the last few years of life.
