Part 2 focuses on the links between housing and health and, recognising significant differences between the countries, draws out lessons which may be applied as similar challenges of austerity, an ageing population and the increasing interest in personal budgets are faced.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Findings<\/p>\n<div class=\"NLM_sec NLM_sec_level1\">\n<div class=\"sectionInfo\">\n<div class=\"sectionJumpTo\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u2013 There is no one size fits all approach to addressing the housing needs of the older population; a continuum of options across tenures is required. There are opportunities for growth in the private and non-profit sectors in terms of the provision of services for the ageing population. Large scale social change comes from better cross-departmental coordination and cannot be achieved by the isolated intervention of a single organisation.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Originality\/value<\/p>\n<div class=\"NLM_sec NLM_sec_level1\">\n<div class=\"sectionInfo\">\n<div class=\"sectionJumpTo\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u2013 This was a unique opportunity to learn lessons from North America on how to effectively meet the needs of the older population, now and in the future.
