AnnotationChoosing the most suitable care accommodation for older people is an exacting task, one in which research that compares models of care can assist. The author reviews one such example, 'Comparative evaluation of models of housing with care for later life' by Karen Croucher and colleagues at the Centre for Housing Policy (CHP) and the Social Work and Development Unit, University of York, published by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF). For the residents of the seven schemes studied, the benefits outweighed any disadvantages. (RH).
