Cohousing-L Mailing List: Subsidizing a health care provider on site - dose it attract the already frail?

[Charles Maclean (advocate]

Fellow Cohousers,

Heard somewhere that some communities may be buying a studio, leasing it to
a health care provider at a reduced rate and having the professional provide
some basic services in prevention and daily support to those aging in place
and all to residents. 

Was asked by a fellow community member if providing that health care support
would attract more people who were already frail?  

Anyone have experience with this option and the pros and cons?

Thanks,

Charles Maclean
