Carers' literature review.
This paper gives a selected review of the available literature on the needs of informal carers in caring for dependent relatives in the community. The papers reviewed are primarily concerned with the type of support needed by carers and how they can be helped by health professionals. The implications of the findings from these papers and the recommendations made for improved care are discussed.
