Abstract: The author takes a first look at the material which will be required of computer information systems when the policies in the British Government's White Paper, Caring for People, (Cm 849, 1989) are implemented. Under the planning timetable set out in the White Paper local authorities must produce community care plans by 1 April, 1991, with subsequent annual reviews to coincide with the normal financial planning cycle. It subsequently lists desired headings for the plan, one of which is about the information needs on which to base planning and another about the information to be provided to service users and their carers. Also implied are information needs linked to the detailed implementation of the community care plans. (Journal abstract, edited.). *. |
