Abstract
Four kinds of community-based housing and case-managed home care programs were investigated for associations with subsequent institutional utilization. Across the four programs and a community housing sample, specific comparisons were made for four institutional risk subgroups (very low, low, some, high). Analyses of institutional placement rates and days indicated that significant effects of housing and case-managed home care services were limited to elderly in the high institutional-risk group.Keywords
