Shownotes Transcript

There are many accounts of consumer directed care (CDC )in England. Some focus on its ambitions, some on its achievements, some on its problems and some on its experiences. A series of 'myths' is being constructed around all four of these dimensions.

Professor Jill Manthorpe from the Social Care Workforce Research Unit at King's College London, who has undertaken several studies of this subject over the past decade in both England and Scotland, tackles some of these myths and sets out a few mysteries for participants to solve.
