By addressing the practical dilemmas of managing in care settings, this volume provides ideas and models of what can work in practice from relevant theories, practical examples and the direct experience of social care managers. The authors of this book: help managers to identify the knowledge and build the skills for managing people and other resources; develop the concept of practice-led management for managers in care settings; tackle key issues of managing risk, promoting welfare, managing significant life events, and the effective management of mistakes; explore the role of managers in encouraging research-mindedness and evidence-informed practice; examine the complexity of managing in partnership across agency and professional boundaries; and look at good practice in managing budgets and making ethical use of up-to-date information.
