Reviews

This excellent book should be essential reading for the Secretary of State for Health and all health service managers and social workers involved in CHC decision making. It is my hope this book will put the woeful application of CHC decision-making back under the spotlight and into the national conversation. -- Simon Bull C.Q.S.W., Assistant Borough Solicitor, Bracknell Council This book provides a fantastic overview of NHS continuing healthcare and is written to give people the information they need. It is incredibly helpful for people who want to learn more about CHC and equip themselves for the often laborious process of applying for it. -- Alzheimer's Society
