Housing is the main building block for the successful delivery of any social and economic policy according to a new report – Housing, Health and Care –from CIH. The report demonstrates that when health, social care and housing services work together they can make sure people with ongoing health and care needs live in better conditions, can stay independent as long as possible and avoid more costly hospitalisation and residential care. The report ultimately challenges government, at all levels, to tear down silos, share agendas, transform services and invest for the long-term.
