It is quite certain that the majority of older people prefer to remain in their own home for as long as possible because they feel comfortable and secure in the environment they know so well. It has been recognised by researchers that the best option for elderly is to remain in their own home, but this is dependent on their health and safety...[elderly people] they are reluctant to apply this to themselves.(Denson, 2006).

Its website is much more comprehensive, easier to use, and is more informative than Abundant Living’s. It also has a tab for employees. Josephine does have some key weaknesses though. The Skilled Nursing area is quite a bit more expensive than both Abundant Living and A Holistic Adult Family Home. Their rates vary from $237 a day to $263 a day. (J. Aungst, 2013). These rates are nearly double that of Abundant living. Also the level of care residents experience is not of the same quality of an Adult Family Home. Employees of Josephine have many more residents to care for than employees of Adult Family Homes that are limited to only six per house. In fact, at times Josephine employees may be responsible for as many as 20 residents. (W. Flaherty, 2013). This larger ratio of residents to employees leads to a less personal interaction with residents and a lower overall quality of life. A Holistic Adult Family Home is more similar in comparison to Abundant Living in that it is an Adult Family home with a Custodial Care license that is legally limited to six residents per house. Rates are similar to Abundant Living but still higher; $5100 a month versus $4000 a month. (E. Moody, 2013). Holistic already has two houses up and running doubling the capacity of Abundant Living.

Canada’s Food Guide’s main strengths are its ease of use, scientific foundation, and its frequency of updates. Its weaknesses lie in the fact that simply consuming an adequate number of servings from each food group does not necessarily guarantee that an adequate amount of every nutrient will be obtained (in accordance with the DRI). Additionally, the difficulty of breaking down combination meals and the lack of information on serving sizes at restaurants may make it difficult to estimate how many servings of the various food groups are obtained.

The same idea is shown throughout the books The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls, To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros, and Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare. Jeannette Walls believes society’s influence is more helpful to character development because it allows the characters to form around this idea of society and decide how they want to

In 1994, a couple approached KoolHaas with a request. The husband had been in a terrible car crash that left him in a wheelchair and unable to move around his old home. He needed a new one that would give him the freedom of mobility back. The husband had one unexpected request. He said, “This house is my world; please make it as complex as possible”. His other requirement was that there should be no visual evidence of his disability. According Melhuish, the Maison à Bordeaux is representative of shifting social and living patterns, she goes on to say that “The precise, but open-ended brief, suggested a design for a dwelling which could encompass a whole topography of physical and synesthetic experience that could compensate for the newly imposed restrictions on the client’s life, and allow for an inhabitation of the house in the imagination as well as by the body” . Five years later this wish became reality .
