Healthy alliance? The relevance of health professionals to housing management.
British public policy now relies on the development of 'healthy alliances' to meet the care, support and servicing needs of people with health problems and mobility difficulties. Such alliances are not, however, new; notably, housing policy is frequently used as a health intervention. This paper examines the character and effectiveness of the resulting alliance between health professionals and housing managers, and considers its future prospects.
