Users Researching Health and Social Care: an empowering innovation?

£13.50

This volume goes beyond the usual lip service to user involvement in health and social care, by demonstrating through a series of innovative research projects the range and depth of engaging the users as researchers. The text highlights the much needed critical addition to our knowledge of the underlying causes of the difficulties users experience, and of the value of professional and family interventions as perceived by users of health and social care systems. It also outlines the potential methodological benefits of such participation.
