ELDERLY/OLDER PEOPLE

More Choice, Greater Voice (28th February 2008)
This document provides a toolkit for undertaking work that will support a whole system approach to planning and developing accommodation and care. It is published by the Housing Learning and Improvement Network at the Care Services Improvement Partnership at the Department of Health and the Department of Communities and Local Government. It is good practice rather than mandatory and has been prepared specifically to accompany the government's new National Housing Strategy for an Ageing Society, to offer guidance for commissioners and providers to enable them to produce accommodation and care strategies for older people.
