The text highlights how to create, maintain, and reconstruct social order within a nursing home and achieve internal balance and stabilization within a care institution.

Reviews for To Live and Work in a Social Welfare Home - Sociological Study of Interactions Between Personnel and Mentally Disabled Wards
An impressive empirical study that significantly contributes to comprehending mental disability and institutional forms of helping the mentally disabled. Niedbalski presents a highly realistic description, free from political correctness, of the pros and cons of working with stigmatized people.
