Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The home care systems in Denmark and Sweden have introduced BUM model, which means care delivery and care assessment are divided. The model has a disadvantage where care services do not match the actual needs of the elderly, since care assessors are not care workers who have the daily contact with them in care setting. The empirical research showed that care workers (home helpers) play an essential role in preventing the mismatch in care services. They use relational power and deliver the care flexibly according to the needs of the care recipients
