| Annotation | The extent to which frail older people in Scotland are able to remain in their own homes with intensive and flexible domiciliary support is examined. This summary outlines the methods of data collection, the findings on the patterns of services and their costs, and the views of older people and their carers. The research was conducted by the Nuffield Centre for Community Care Studies at the University of Glasgow, with an economic evaluation by the Centre for the Economics of Mental Health, Institute of Psychiatry.
