THIS IS an excellent care home practice guide. The authors assert that most research and information about care homes focuses on service given in the daytime and this book has been written in acknowledgement of the need to examine night-time care. They suggest that care can be improved with increased management involvement, more targeted and time appropriate training and support, plus clarity about procedures, including emergency procedures.
