Summary	Highly Commended in the Public Health category of the 2003 BMA Medical Book Competition. The authors of this book share their practical experience of implementing a multi-agency approach to the support of older people. They show how systems thinking can help with the complexity of developing a model of care that co-ordinates medical, social and community services. They offer insight into the effective use of on-going assessment, evaluation, costing and information technology, with examples. They demonstrate how they achieved a 'one-stop' rapid response to emergencies and a multi-level approach.
