Abstract
Cognitively impaired or mentally ill older individuals placed in community accommodation specifically for the elderly mentally infirm (EMI) may not always be viewed as successfully placed by residence staff. This sometimes necessitates a move to alternative care. This article examines several factors that may influence care staff views about current success of residents' placement and finds that affective behavioural factors correlate more strongly with this than either cognitive function as measured by Mini Mental State or behaviour reflected in Crichton Rating Scale scores.
