AnnotationThis paper investigates how care homes can be de-institutionalised and what factors are key in independence for residents. It takes the form of a review of the current life of residents in care homes in Wales, with insight from My Home Life Cymru. It identifies eight best practice themes, which together form a vision for care homes in the twenty-first century. Care homes play an important role in social care, providing services to some of our most vulnerable citizens. By focusing on the quality of life in care homes for older people, we can play a part in delivering services that people want, in the way that they want them. (RH).
