from acute care, prevent admission or re-admission to acute care
and avoid bed-blocking in both acute and long-term residential
care. It encompasses a range of short-term options including rapid
response, hospital at home, residential rehabilitation, supported
discharge and day rehabilitation. Continuing Care is delivered on a
long-term basis in a variety of settings and often includes an
element of rehabilitation.
Although these two types of care have distinct objectives, they
are interrelated as changes in the supply of one type of care may
affect demands for the other. In addition, from a patient
perspective, intermediate and continuing care might be seen as part
of the continuum of care options that are supplied to meet their
needs. This book argues for consideration of intermediate and
continuing care as part of the care continuum that provides
integrated care adopting whole system approaches.
This edited volume explores policy, practice and current issues
in intermediate and continuing care. It will be of interest to
allhealth and social care professionals involved in the provision
and planning of care for older people. It falls in three parts:
intermediate care, continuing care, and a shorter section on
patient and public involvement and future directions.
