The education of children with migration experience in the Polish school – problems and challenges Migrant families force their members, especially children, to directly “take root” not only in the life of the new community, but also to indirectly (self-)disinherit from their previous cultural assignment when they start schooling within the educational system of the host country. The involuntary nature of children’s migration in connection with the need to undertake compulsory schooling in new educational realities results in far-reaching changes of a process-oriented nature in their mental sphere. This is a specific response to the cultural shock experienced as a result of participating in a different educational process. For Poland (as a host country), the migration of increasing numbers of families − slow but with a constant upward trend − raises new challenges, including educational ones. Regardless of the already introduced administrative and legal solutions, educational solutions are still lacking in Poland to provide long-term care and support not only in the educational sphere, but also in the psychological sphere for all students of migrant parents

Internationally, over the past two decades the theme of personalisation has driven significant reforms within health and social care services. In the Australian context, the principles of ‘entitlement based on need’ and ‘personalisation’ frame the proposed National Disability Long-Term Care and Support Scheme (LTCSS). In this article, we critically examine the interpretations and ambiguities of need and personalisation. We consider the administrative complexities of applying these principles in practice and the uncertainties about the roles of state and the market, and use individual case examples to illustrate areas of potential tension. Whether principles translate to deliver personalised services and avoid harmful trade-offs between access, equity and choice is the true test of social policy.

Care System

Thailand has unique advantages and challenges in caring for people with dementia. Thailand is in the process of launching its National Dementia Strategy, based on the previously developed care and support policies for the elderly. Currently, care for people with dementia is provided through integrated community care by family and health volunteers, and care costs are covered by the Universal Coverage Scheme. The main challenges are to raise public awareness of dementia, to improve healthcare capacity, and to prepare for a long-term care system. There needs to be focus on innovative medical management and prevention strategies to tackle dementia in Thailand. In the future, Thailand expects to see an improvement in public education about dementia, an increase in specialist training involving multidisciplinary teams, the emergence of sustainable long-term community-based care, and the expansion of an accessible care system with adequate standards for the Thai population.

AbstractThe issue of long-term care and support of people with acquired brain injury has been a significant clinical and policy issue for some time; however. as evidence accrues about increases in incidence and survival from brain injury, the focus on this issue sharpens (Kolpan, 1990; McCluskey, 2005). The net effect of these increases (in the number of new brain injuries per year plus survival beyond the acute phase) is a sharp increase in prevalence, or the number of people living with the effects of brain injury in a given population. Add to that new information that has recently been published regarding long-term survival, and it becomes immediately apparent that factors are converging to produce an immanent increase in the economic and human costs of acquired brain injuries, at least in the developed world.

Detailed Assessment

Depot Clinics or ‘Moderate Clinics’ tend to be similar. They are usually regarded as ‘low priority’ and often staffed by clinical assistants with only a limited training in psychiatry. Typically a large number of patients turn up each week, and there is little time for a detailed assessment of their needs. The clinic is often seen as ‘a chore’ by medical and nursing staff who may feel that the long-term care and support of patients with chronic disabling illnesses lacks excitement. One gains the impression that the patients with the less attractive personalities or those presenting repetitive management problems are more likely to be referred.

Future Growth

This article considers the very different context of long-term care (LTC), where the care team often combines formal and informal workers. It focuses on the economics of LTC and in particular on issues such as the organizing and delivery of care and support to meet the significant future growth in demand for LTC. It discusses rapidly growing demand for LTC and resulting pressures on public finances. It means that governments across the globe are increasingly recognizing the need to get a better understanding of financing and allocating LTC resources, achieving individual and societal outcomes cost-effectively, and pursuing equity in the distribution of benefits and burdens. This article discusses provision, financing and governance, respectively and also mentions the consequences of aging populations on the need for and cost of LTC.
