Hospital close to home

This concept stems from a common shift in current health care trends to employ "aging in place". The proposal is a domestic apartment block that is collaborated into an aged care facility that serves both the building and the area. People who live in the apartments would maintain their own level of independence whilst having the facilities and services nearby when needed. This blurring between domesticity and institution could open many opportunities for exploration into the relationship between health care and home. All of which are relevant to current architecture and its response to emerging demographics.
