What does social enterprise mean for community nursing?

Rosemary Cook (2006) What does social enterprise mean for community nursing? Br J Community Nurs 11(11) 472-4

Abstract

The concept of social enterprise has gained currency since the publication of the health white paper "Our Health, Our Care, Our Say" (Department of Health, 2001). Social enterprise is a way of introducing competition into health-care provision without focusing on extracting maximum profit, since in most cases any profits are reinvested into the enterprise. Rosemary Cook takes a look at the thinking behind social enterprise, its potential role in the NHS and what is could mean for community nursing.
