Thats right JWatts and thats why we too say "If, but, when, why and sometimes WTF."
I appreciate your concern to promote independent living but sometimes when working at the fringes this does create additional problems. People with particular special needs being honed into property and housing schemes that by their very nature cannot meet those needs effectively or without putting others at risk.
True example- I remember one forthright discussion with a social worker supporting a gentleman who needed a lot of support, he was a chain smoker and they put him in a ground floor flat in a single staircase 3 storey building. He was very fearful of being closed in so his front door and all doors in his flat were wedged open. The social worker insisted that to close the doors breached his human rights and put notices on the doors warning people not to close them. The wrong type of accommodation and the wrong type of support which placed everyone else at intolerable risk and having to endure his secondhand smoke.
