AnnotationThe research reviewed considers contrasting approaches to residential care, and the different lifestyles the residents may experience as a result. Rosemary Bland's "Independence, privacy and risk" (Ageing and Society, vol 19, pt 5, 1999) contrasts social care and hotel approaches. The second study, "Homely residential care" by Caroline Holland and Sheila Peace (Open University, 1998) is a study of small homes for four or less older people, and focuses on a more domestic approach.
