Quality care - The Big Q

The Big Q Age Concern and Help the Aged announces ten tests for the Government’s imminent Green Paper on care and support reform

In early July we expect the Government to publish its long awaited Green Paper on care and support reform. In this Green Paper‚ the Government will outline a number of suggestions on how the current care system can be reformed.

In advance of this Green Paper‚ we have announced the ten tests that we will use to assess whether or not the reforms in the Green Paper will lead to improved quality care for older people.
