Nieuwe Woonzorgvoorzieningen voor Ouderen (New Buildings for Elderly People)
The book explores the social-spatial consequences of changes in the policy with respect to housing, caring for and nursing the elderly in the Netherlands. A pause in the building of new facilities and even closing down of existing ones lead to a process of rethinking the forms in which elderly people had been housed and cared for so far within the walls of the institutions. This process, although in its beginning stage, has already produced a number of newly built and renovated buildings, in which other combinations of housing and (professional) assistance to its inhabitants are tried out. Seven of these buildings are described in this exploratory study. For each of the seven the reorientation and preparation process was studied, the building emanating from this process analyzed and a first evaluation of both the building and the way the assistance functioned was obtained from a group of inhabitants and staff members.
