Long-term care. The best of both worlds.
An NHS/housing association venture has produced good accommodation for 30 elderly people in need of long-term care. The housing organisation takes responsibility for support services such as laundry, cleaning, security and catering. The unit remains part of the NHS. Patients appreciate the environment and staff turnover is low.
