The new 3rd edition of the Care Act Manual provides a comprehensive guide to the Care and Support Act 2014 which came in force from 1 April 2015.

Written in a clear and practical style, the new edition gives easy and up-to-date access to the law governing the provision of care and support services to older and disabled people, and that safeguarding vulnerable adults from abuse and neglect.

  • Provides annotation to the Care Act 2014 and over 14 sets of regulations that have been issued under the Act (including the recent amendments made to the charging regulations)

  • Looks at the concept of ordinary residence in the light of the Supreme Court decision in R (Cornwall Council) v SSH [2015] UKSC 46.
  • Considers all the significant case law developments since the implementation of the Care Act, as well as decisions by the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman
  • Provides detailed analysis of when individuals can establish legal rights to services, including the ramifications of the Court of Appeal decision in R (Davey) v Oxfordshire CC [2017] EWCA Civ 1308
  • Looks at rights to independent advocacy to represent and support a person going through the adult social care system, as reinforced by the decision in R (SG) v LB Haringey [2017] EWCA Civ 322, the first ever case to be decided under the Care Act
  • Documents and considers the implications of the Government decision not to take forward the capped costs system and funding reforms recommended by the Dilnot Commission
