First published in 1994, Caring Under Pressure examines the neglected area of stress and coping strategies of children and staff in residential settings who have to function within contradictory expectations of the general public and policy makers.
The book discusses the development of specialist residential provision for young people in difficulties and explores the characteristics of young people moved in and out of specialist residential provision and of their carers. Based on phenomenological research, it discusses staff and young people's experiences of stress in residential settings; culture and rituals of life there; and their perceptions of routines.
This work is particularly valuable for professionals involved in the education and care of children in residential environments.
