abstract: Rather than exploring older people's experiences in any breadth or depth, this book highlights the lack of existing research into their experiences of intermediate care services. It provides a comprehensive explanation of the development of intermediate care and how it fits into the government's policy agenda for older people, and offers models of intermediate care services, which either prevent acute hospital admission or help timely discharges.
