This revised and updated edition of an important report looks at macro public policy interventions, community interventions, and individual level interventions in a variety of settings, including infancy, early years, childhood, adolescence, and particular needs including looked after children. It considers 'what works' - or might work - in practice. There are new case studies, updated research references, and new reference to cost effectiveness - all relevant for doing the right thing in a climate of austerity. Drawing on evidence from the UK and beyond, the book presents these in an accessible form, not just for those who make decisions now, but also for the students of today who are the decision makers of tomorrow. The book is supported by a companion website, containing additional materials for both students and lecturers, which is available from the link above. 606 $aChild health services$zGreat Britain 606 $aChildren with social disabilities$xMedical care$zGreat Britain 606 $aHealth services accessibility$zGreat Britain 615 0$aChild health services 615 0$aChildren with social disabilities$xMedical care 615 0$aHealth services accessibility 676 $a362.10830941 686 $aMED028000$aMED078000$2bisacsh 700 $aRoberts$b Helen$f1949-$01632817 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962086403321 996 $aWhat works in reducing inequalities in child health$94353008 997 $aUNINA
