Chapter 9 · The welfare society
En äldre person klarar inte längre att bo hemma trots stöd. Vilken insats kan kommunen pröva enligt bilden?
An older person can no longer live at home despite support. Which service can the municipality assess, as shown?
Correct answer: Residential care for older people
When support at home is insufficient, residential care may be appropriate. The municipality assesses needs; reaching a particular age does not automatically provide a place.

Day services offer support or activities during the day, not a new home.
Trygghetslarm i bostaden
An alarm can improve safety at home, but is not residential care when living at home is no longer possible.
Avlastande stöd till anhöriga
Support for relatives can relieve carers, but is not itself the residential solution needed here.
