With an increased emphasis now being placed on community-centred care, the roles of the community health-care team are rapidly developing. This book has been completely revised and updated and provides an introduction to students who are exploring the concept of community care for the first time. It explores the roles of the different members of the community health-care team, and includes a new chapter on the role of the district nurse in caring for the person with AIDS.
