Publisher Description: Aging societies--with a growing number of old people needing care--have made safe, effective, and responsive health services for the elderly a priority for many OECD and European Union countries. Much remains to be done, however, to enhance evidence-based measurement and to improve the quality of extended care. This books offers evidence and examples of useful experiences to help policymakers, providers, and healthcare experts measure and improve the quality of long-term care services.
