Sheltered housing: The relative dimension

Abstract

Until now the role played by the relatives of older people in sheltered housing has been largely neglected. Now their involvement in decision‐making, care and support has been explored in a new report. This article looks at some of the findings, and examines how confusion can arise not only about their role, but also about the service provided by sheltered housing itself.
