This is a guide for nurses, other professional health workers and carers on the statutory and voluntary services available for people needing further help in the community. There is an understandable tendency for hospital nurses to feel their job is done once the patient leaves the ward. But for the patient, that is often when his problems begin. Who can answer his questions now? What happens when something goes wrong? Is he entitled to any extra benefits? Through case studies and details of the "helping hands" available, this book is a guide to the type of assistance that is available to patients.
