| Annotation | Sheltered housing is increasingly seen as an essential ingredient in "seamless" packages of care and support offered to older people. This workshop discussed themes raised in a National Housing Federation's 1996 publication, "Challenging times: the changing role of the warden". Speakers outlined the report's key messages and the financial implications of the increased levels of service provided. Workshop sessions examined a series of propositions in a questionnaire, including: sheltered housing should provide a home for life; the warden should be resident on site; the warden should be substantially involved in the care and support of residents in helping to create and monitoring care packages; and residents should have a say in the level of services provided. This report summarises the presentations, and analyses comments and responses to the questionnaire. (RH). |
