Kingsley Norton takes the reader, step-by-step, through the entire process of setting up these new services. Unpacking Henderson Hospital's complex interpersonal environment into its ideological, 'cultural' and structural constituents, a development team that included ex-service users from Henderson used these ingredients to imprint the TC model in the newly recruited staff teams. The two replicated products were further supported and evaluated by the development team during their first 18 months of operation. The author reveals the complexity of the developmental task and shows that the process was never a case of 'just adding water'.Dr Norton's wealth of hands-on experience and practical advice makes this book essential reading for anyone interested in management and the NHS or public services and attempting to innovate. It is also useful for those wanting to understand more about TCs and how they operate as institutions.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 233mmItem Length: 161mmItem Width: 14mmItem Weight: 320gAuthor: Kingsley NortonGenre: MedicineBook Series: Community, Culture and ChangeRelease Year: 2006 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
