    Abstract

    The emergence of the intermediate care agenda has added momentum to the debate on the use of alternative care settings for the delivery of rehabilitative interventions for older persons. This paper reports on the findings of the first stage of a research programme to investigate the extent of the use of care home environments for the rehabilitation of older people in England. Stage two of the project will explore in more depth the characteristics of the rehabilitation provision identified in stage one.
