Joint Committee On Health
Life Cycle Approach to Mental Health: Discussion
Mr. Mervyn Taylor:
Yet, there is a real problem of professionals in some cases not being willing to go into the homes of older people because they regard them as insanitary. They do not want to go in to them and say nursing home care is required, which is what sets the whole thing in train. We have, therefore, a systemic and professional issue. We need legislation to protect the liberties of people in places of care.
