在过去的二十年里，向更多地提供家庭医疗保健的转变一直是一个重要的政策意图[Ham，C.，狄克逊，A.，&布鲁克，B.（2012）转变卫生和社会保健的交付：根本变革的案例（伦敦：国王基金）。实现这一目标的关键是需要通过安装一系列可能的改造，为残疾家庭提供适当的住宿。使用2003/2004年和2009/2010年英国住房调查的数据，我们比较了适应的提供水平与一些社会文化变量，并报告了一些显着的相关性。其中最重要的是，对非白人残疾家庭和年轻残疾家庭的偏见，租赁住房与残疾家庭之间的重大联系，以及户主认为不需要的调整比例在这六年期间从7%增加到25%，令人担忧。我们讨论了这些结果的背景，并得出结论，为未来的研究，这是迫切需要验证和理解所提出的问题的大纲计划。
The move towards greater provision of healthcare at home has been a significant policy intention for the past two decades [Ham, C., Dixon, A., & Brooke, B. (2012) Transforming the Delivery of Health and Social Care: The Case for Fundamental Change (London: Kings Fund)]. Key to this ambition is the need to provide suitable accommodation for disabled households by installing a range of possible adaptations. Using data from English Housing Surveys of 2003/2004 and 2009/2010, we compare levels of the provision of adaptations with a number of socio-cultural variables, and report on some significant correlations. This includes most importantly, bias against non-white disabled households and younger disabled households, a significant link between rented accommodation and disabled households, and a worrying increase in the proportion of adaptations deemed by the householders to be not needed', from 7 to 25 per cent, over that 6-year time period. We discuss the context of these results and conclude with an outline plan for future research, which is urgently needed to verify and understand the issues raised.
