When you get old you might need a new home where it is easier to get support and service. The solution can be family care, sheltered housing or institutional care.
Housing services come in many forms. You may buy or rent a flat or a room in a communal housing unit.
Family care means that an older person gets care and attention in the family carer’s home or his or her own home.
Care at an institution is only considered when other ways are no longer enough to meet the older person’s needs for care and attention.
