Economics fit for social care
The complexity of social care requires a broad analytic perspective
Outcomes should include the perspective of service users and their families
The costs of un-paid care should always be included Methods can be applied which address the lack of
evidence in social work and social care Costs and benefits should be analysed for different
sub groups of the population

The importance of costs and outcomes
“...there was no statistically significant difference in the costs of all the services used by the reablement and comparison group over the 12 month study period.”
“... the study has established a high probability of cost-effectiveness...”
