"Malta has an extensive formal care provision. In the field of ageing there is a wide range of services available for the elderly and for their carers aimed at improving the quality of life of the elderly while maintaining them in their own homes, community and environment. However, the majority of care for the elderly is still provided by the family members. This publication is the first nation-wide report concerning the state of family members taking care of older relatives in the Maltese Islands. It investigates the socio-economic conditions of these carers while analysing their changing role and status, their needs and problems resulting from the various changes which Maltese society and family are passing through.

There is no extensive formal care provision or system supporting family carers in Poland. The cohabiting family plays a major role in organizing support for the elderly. Nevertheless, the family carers are not perceived as natural partners for both medical and social services. As a result, caring for the elderly often brings additional costs for the family and restrictions to work and income. This book presents the legal status and social situation of family carers in Poland, explains the range of services available and the possibilities to use help adapted specially for this group.

This report provides an overview of the current situation and needs of family carers, the socio-political frame of family caring, the coverage and usage of social and health related care services as well as trends and perspectives regarding future provision of services.

Norway is a high-service country with a wide range of community services. In the public opinion the welfare state is the prime source of care for elderly, supported by the family. Norwegian families provide practical as well personal care, however slightly less than in countries with a more family dominated care system. The total level of help is high, however. Family carers are important both in care giving and care administration. To secure individualised user-oriented services, the family perspective and co-operation between the informal and formal care systems are of uttermost importance.

"At a time of extreme globalisation "Ageing in the Mediterranean" fills a key void in international literature on ageing societies. This important and timely volume brings together a distinguished set of international scholars who provide rich information about the social, economic, political, and historical factors responsible for shaping ageing policy in the Mediterranean region. It is a regional handbook that highlights the idiosyncrasies of overlapping ageing issues in one particular territory and presents a range of key issues and concerns including migration, care-giving, employment, and health care amongst others, whilst providing rich data from various countries such as Israel, Italy, Lebanon, Malta, Portugal, Tunisia and Turkey. "Ageing in the Mediterranean" will be warmly welcomed by researchers in social and public policy, gerontology and geriatrics, welfare economics, and health care. It will also be of interest to policy makers and NGOs involved in welfare and social care services"--provided by publisher.
