It provides uniquely comprehensive coverage and wide-ranging analysis of the key issues within and across the different human services. Expert chapters from contributors in key areas such as health and social care services, education and school services, offender services, children’s services, and continuing care give insights into the challenges of collaborative working and the contexts in which these challenges may be faced. Perspectives from service users and carers highlight the fundamental role played by these two groups in the inter-agency team. With examples from distinct service areas, students and practitioners are able to explore their own area of work whilst also gaining an understanding of issues faced by other professionals.
