> Title: Ageing and the Bio / Psycho/ Social Model of Care
> Abstract: Operational Research, Rehabilitation and the NHS were health care
> outcomes of the Second World War. Rehabilitation is difficult to define and
> harder still to measure. In the 1980’s the central place of rehabilitation
> controlling long-term care was overlooked. Using flow diagrams I will
> explain
> why the NHS bed crisis occurred.
> Current solutions to the bed crisis involve preventing social admissions,
> speeding up discharge and the development of intermediate care. But the
> population is ageing, older people need time to recover, and disease
> presents
> differently in old age. To illustrate this I will consider conflict theory,
> the
> Goldilocks principles, and the bio-psycho- social model of care, then argue
> that rational planning will only return when the scientific principles that
> underpin the care of an ageing population are identified, disseminated and
> taught.
