Abstract
The potential role of various forms of residential care — ‘shelter-withcare’ — for elderly people and people with disabilities is the subject of this chapter. The blurring of the boundaries between residential and community-based services in the most innovatory forms of community care is described and the inhibiting effect on such developments of the narrow dualistic conception of residential care within communities acknowledged. Professor Davies’ chapter forges a link between the critique of dualistic conceptions of how communities care, made in earlier chapters, and the accounts which follow of the diversity of roles that good-quality residential facilities can play in promoting community care. The conclusion is that reform of community care in the UK, far from sounding the death knell of residential institutions, provides opportunities for their more complete integration into caring communities.
