Annotation | This special issue of Journal of Housing for the Elderly explores some places in which hospice and palliative care is provided in the US and the UK, also what constitutes a "good death". These "places" for palliative care range from the situations of older homeless people and the public nature of acute hospital settings, to assisted living, houses with modified interiors, "smart homes", and generally making provision in the home environment.
