AnnotationThis issue of Aging & Mental Health includes four empirical studies and two reviews of topics relating to long-term residential care. This editorial draws attention to some of their themes: the role of family carers in care homes; depression, apathy, quality of life (QoL) and recreational activities; and assumptions that residential care (particularly for those with dementia) is suboptimal.
