In 1990 East Berkshire health authority jointly with Berkshire social services carried out a 15 month project on five sites to pilot case management in preparation for the implementation of the community care reforms. Health visitor Catherine Squire describes her experience of working as a case manager in one of the pilots and argues for better career opportunities for health visitors in this field.
