Matt Fowler, Co-ordination & Development Officer, Safer Middlesbrough Partnership, UK (Journal of Interprofessional Care)
"There is a growing body of literature surrounding the incorporation and complexity of partnership working within service delivery and whilst this edited book adds to that knowledge, it places a specific focus on highlighting examples of best practice within the field of health,social care and criminal justice."
Michelle Jolley, PhD Student, School of Law, University of Plymouth, UK in The Howard Journal May 2010
"It is worth obtaining this book for Chapter 16 alone. Entitled 'On the receiving end: Reflections from a service user', it should be compulsory reading for every practitioner, manager and politician for its matter-of-fact yet piercing account of being a service user."
Journal of Health and Social Care in the Community Volume 18 Issue 1, Published Online: 15 Dec 2009
"A welcome addition to the increasing number of texts that are now addressing working across departmental and organisational boundaries."
British Journal of Social Work
"This text is clearly written with all the health and social care professions in mind and will prove to be an invaluable resource for students and trained staff alike."
Margaret Chambers, Lecturer in Children's Nursing, University of Plymouth, UK
Comprehensive yet concise, this text addresses many of the main social and health issues facing society today, and incorporates a practical focus to demonstrate partnership working. The new edition of this popular book has been updated to include new chapters on the partnership approach in criminal justice and provides a practical and theoretical insight into some of the issues when working in collaborative partnership with other agencies.
The text examines the partnership approach to delivering services in relation to:
• Child protection
• Mental health
• Gypsy travellers
• Domestic violence
• Drug misuse
• Homelessness
• Old and young people
• HIV and AIDS
The first section of the book examines the nature of partnership in relation to concepts, politics, diversity, ethics and information technology. The second edition incorporates knowledge from a range of carefully selected contributors, using their expertise with particular user groups to illustrate where collaboration is crucial for effective practice. The final section reflects upon what has been learnt about partnership work and includes reflections from a service user and a chapter on evaluation.
Effective Practice in Health, Social Care and Criminal Justice is an essential text for students, practitioners and managers from a variety of human service agencies, and is a must-read for anyone working in a multi-agency partnership.
