The monograph presents, from the disabled consumer's perspective, a description and critique of independent living and attendant care services in Sweden. First, a brief description of Swedish welfare policy as it applies to the population as a whole is presented. Next, services available to people with disabilities are described with emphasis on personal assistance programs which help to keep disabled and elderly citizens out of institutions. These services are then evaluated based on available statistical material, contacts with providers and consumers of the services, and the disabled author's own experiences. These services include personal assistants, the county home health service, escort services, evening patrols, emergency call systems, and cluster housing. Assessment is in terms of administrative compartmentalization, economic and other obstacles to deinstitutionalization, professionalism and limited consumer input, decentralized financial responsibility and regional inequality, and limited consumer choices. Noted is the formation of the Stockholm Independent Living Group of disabled consumers concerned with increasing choices in personal assistance alternatives. Research issues in the areas of needs assessment, redefining institutions, degree of consumer control, quality criteria, and program design are identified. An appendix contains design criteria for personal assistance programs. Finally, four commentaries by American rehabilitation experts are added.
