AnnotationThe continued expansion of the intermediate care initiative has resulted in the use of alternative care settings, such as nursing homes and care homes, for the delivery of rehabilitative interventions for older people. The authors report on findings from the second stage of a national survey of rehabilitation schemes that use care home settings. The survey reveals a wide range of approaches and standards that lead the authors to ask whether there is a gap between policy goals, good practice and actual service provision. The care home rehabilitation schemes were selected on the basis that they offered, as a minimum, rehabilitation to improve an older person's physical status. (RH).
