Title: Unhealthy Expectations? Public Services and the Individual in the Enhancement of Wellbeing
Abstract: This talk addresses expectations of health services, social care, and other personal services that seek to enhance personal wellbeing, and their changing relationships between providers and users. It stands back from the hubbub of service delivery to consider some experiences of service relationships, the historical forces shaping these relationships, underlying issues such as rights and demands, user choice, and behavioural change. The conclusions reflect the often cruel optimism of expectation and its insatiable lust for certainty.
