My Work

Abstract

Richard Humphries has enjoyed an impressive career, working his way from a trainee social worker in the late 1970s to the Care Services Improvement Partnership where he was Chief Executive until 2007. In this final article, Richard describes his career to date and compares how social care for older people was delivered when he first started out, with now, concluding that while much has been achieved, the job will only be done when we ourselves will be happy to use the services.
