| Annotation | A major PSSRU study (ECCEP - Evaluating Community Care for Elderly People) in 12 areas of England and Wales is beginning to answer questions on needs-related community care, the effects of services and their costs. This article presents some first results, on: costs to the SSD (social service department) and CHS (community health service) by interval need and informal support; influences on who is allocated home care and who residential care; and the influence of need dimensions and initial care packages. |
