520			_aThis book provides comprehensive explanations of community care legislation, as well as other areas of law directly relevant to practitioners, including the NHS; disabled facilities grants and housing adaptations; asylum and immigration; mental capacity; human rights; disability discrimination; health and safety at work; and negligence. It also covers a range of legal provisions relevant to the protection and safeguarding of adults. Changes from the last edition include coverage of the Mental Capacity Act 2005; legal implications of 'self directed care' and 'individual budgets'; changes to direct payments and 'ordinary residence' determinations. In particular, new guidance applies to the high-profile issue of NHS continuing health care.
