Description
Mirkka Söderman, Carl Johansson, and Lena-Karin Gustafsson run a 2026 Swedish panel study on support for older people living in their own homes. More older adults now stay home with varied, growing needs, which demands coordinated municipal care. Twenty stakeholders and decision makers rated 45 statements across three mail rounds to find consensus.
Every statement reached some consensus. Panelists agreed that today's care recipients are older and frailer, family members need recovery time, and many homes are not adapted to greater needs. Communication and collaboration between services fell short. The authors urge planning that covers both individual wishes and organizational conditions, with digital tools fitted to what older people actually want.
