Ageing in extra-care housing
Extra-care housing (ECH) has been hailed as a potential solution to some of the problems associated with traditional forms of social care, since it allows older people to live independently, while also having access to care and support if required. However, little longitudinal research has focused on the experiences of residents living in ECH, particularly in recent years. This paper reports on a longitudinal study of four ECH schemes in the Unit…
Making use of evidence in commissioning practice
Background This paper discusses findings from a study of English Local Authority (LA) Adult Social Care Departments (ASCDs) that explored how managers use telecare. A decade earlier, a large clinical trial, the ‘Whole System Demonstrator’ project (WSD), funded by the Department of Health (DH) investigated telecare’s effectiveness in promoting and maintaining independence among users. It found no evidence that telecare improved outcomes. Despite t…

You have got to stick to your times’
Extra care housing (ECH) has been lauded as an innovative model of housing with care for older people that promotes and supports independent living.

This paper reports findings from semi-structured interviews with 20 care workers and seven managers. The article argues that, despite being heralded as a new mo…

The paper also considers housing with care in the context of UK policy and practice. Design/methodology/approach – The peer literatur…
Delivering public sector transformation
This article looks at the challenges for delivering personalisation across public services, the key for transformation of those services. Based on a recent publication, Housing Health and Care (Davis et al, 2009), it argues that the policy context, performance systems and local frameworks are now possibly better placed than ever before to deliver the integrated working that can underpin sustainable communities and allow for really personalised se…
Extra care housing
In this article we first give the facts on what extra care is. Second, we make a few points on what really helps improve commissioning. The article draws on innovative and up‐to‐date material developed for the Department of Health's Housing Learning & Improvement Network by Moyra Riseborough from CURS at the University of Birmingham and Peter Fletcher of Peter Fletcher Associates. To see more about the Housing LIN and its work, readers should go …
Supporting People
Supporting People is arguably the most comprehensive and radical overhaul of housing‐related support services to date. Much of its success will depend on how providers take the policy forward in practice
Technology for independence
This article is based on the report Using Telecare: Exploring Technologies for Independent Living for Older People, which contains the findings of a lifestyle monitoring system. The report sets the project in the context of other work in the field of care of older people in the UK and of related health and social care initiatives. The authors identify the research agenda involved in the further development of lifestyle monitoring and that surroun…
Preventive approaches in housing
The report Preventive Approaches in Housing follows a year‐long study looking at effective approaches in 16 housing settings, from sheltered and general needs housing, both RSL and local authority, to owner occupiers and private tenants. The aims of the work were to explore ways in which housing and related support services can have preventive outcomes and to describe good practice
Working with older people
THIS IS AN ACCOUNT of two projects initiated by Anchor Trust and funded by the Department of Health Community Care Development Programme for a period of two years ‐ 1996 to 1998. The projects, in Brighton and Hartlepool, were supported by the local authorities, health agencies and the voluntary sector, and worked in close collaboration with them to establish local service networks with older people. The projects were evaluated by the Nuffield Ins…
