Who cares?

Research undertaken by the author of this article found that there is a lack of education for community nurses on the role of informal carers. She advocates such education is introduced so that health professionals are better able to support informal carers and suggests that the 'Carers Compass' developed by the Carers Impact Project at the King's Fund could serve as a conceptual guide for teaching purposes.
