This paper by the Sussex Gerontology Network of the University of Sussex makes the case for seeing sheltered/retirement housing in the context of the ‘preventative’ agenda. Prepared as a discussion paper for their workshop in April 2006.

Some of the key issues involved in partnership-based strategic planning for extra care in East Sussex. A small conversion from sheltered housing and a larger new scheme catering for a range of use. Different management models are briefly discussed.
