This booklet sets out the different policies and practices that need to be in place to support carers and to meet the eight key outcomes that carers have identified as important to them. Written for NHS commissioners and managers, working in partnership with local authorities, voluntary organisations, independent providers and carers, The Carers Compass can be used both in audit and performance management.
