The Shared Care Option Placements for Elderly People team, in Lewisham, which provides short- and long-term residential placements for elderly people has just completed a six-month pilot project, aimed at offering black elders and elderly people suffering from mental ill-health a flexible alternative to the more traditional day care services.
