| Annotation | The impact of an assisted living services (ALS) programme on directors of state-funded congregate housing is explored. The authors interviewed congregate housing directors about how adding the ALS programme to their facilities affected their management experiences. Four themes emerged from the focus group data: importance of assisted living services for promoting ageing in place; "cost" of offering ALS; differences in how the ALS programme was implemented; and organisational issues emerging from the merger of housing and healthcare models.
