Hospital life: when it works it works well. 1979

T Whitehead

Although it is now generally accepted that the best place to treat old people is in their own homes it is sometimes necessary for them to have some sort of institutional care. This poses the question of whether it is better to care for them in hospital, in old people's homes, or with community support, in day hospitals and day centres. Tony Whitehead looks at schemes in East Sussex which cover a catchment area including Brighton.
