Abstract
The progress of the initial group of one hundred clients was monitored following referral to a joint-funded assessment unit for "confused" elderly people. Data were collected on allocation and subsequent usage of a range of services available, and implications for clients are discussed. The establishment of specialist service systems for people who are elderly is reviewed in the context of the probable impact upon both clients and local neighbourhoods. The social policies of integration, segregation and congregation are briefly discussed with regard to data obtained. Implications for planning of future services are identified, together with a discussion of likely consequences of replicating such a service.
