Abstract: family health problems, the sources to which they apply for help, and their personal assessment of the qualities of different potential helpers.It demonstrates the central position of the family doctor, who continues to be the mothers' mainstay in the case of most troubles, the exception being financial difficulties and threats of eviction, seen as the special preserve of the social casework centre.A subsidiary investigation among the workers at the centre illustrates some of the dissatisfaction and confusion experienced by the would-be providers of social casework when their role becomes, in effect, that of a buffer between the tenant and the 'rent department'.
