| Annotation | These findings outline results of a project exploring changes in residential and nursing care provision between 1991 and 2001 conducted by Laura Banks, Philip Haynes, Susan Balloch and Michael Hill of the Health and Social Policy Research Centre, University of Brighton. They used standard table data from the 1991 and 2001 Censuses to look at general trends and the relative changes in the age, gender and ethnicity of care home residents by county and unitary authority (also at regional level using the 2001 Census). The research showed an overall decline in care homes and residents, but some marked variation in the independent sector. It also highlights how decline in residential care has tended to affect more deprived areas with higher rates of poor health in older people, and that older people in such local authority areas were, in 2001, less likely to be living in a care home. Areas such as the London boroughs where there had been a larger decline tended also to be greater 'exporters' of care home residents. The main report (same title) is published by Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF). (RH). |
