The role of home maintenance and modification services in achieving health, community care and housing outcomes in later life

10 November, 2008
10 November 2008 | This research project had two broad aims, one focused on research and the other on policy. The first is to establish the foundations for a more extensive evidence base to underpin policies to provide home maintenance and modification (HMM) services to older Australians. The second is to use current research, including the international research literature and the findings of this study, to critically analyse current policy settings and consider alternatives.
