Long-Term Care Reforms in OECD Countries
Editat de Jose-Luis Fernandez, Cristiano Gori, Raphael Wittenbergen Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 dec 2015
The past fifteen years have seen longterm care policies in the countries of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) undergo substantial transformations, either through major policy reforms or through accumulated minor policy changes. This book brings together data from many OECD countries to compare key changes in national policies, examine the successes or failures of new approaches, and offer policy strategies for the future. Drawing on fifteen years of evidence and bringing together contributors from a number of perspectives throughout the OECD, it will be essential for those studying—or making—policy.

Recenzii
"I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants a deeper understanding of the problems of financing and providing long-term care in developed countries, as well as ideas for feasible solutions."
“With the increasing national and international interest in how to best match long-term care needs and provisions, this book offers learning and inspiration for a wide audience interested in the key policy lessons of comparative studies.”
