"This paper discusses indicators of functional health and the formal services use of the elderly. Functional health and formal services use are linked causally and are important constructs in gerontological research and in measuring the quality of life of seniors living in social housing. Addressing several clear study objectives, the paper is divided into five sections. It begins by setting the context and defining the importance of supportive housing for seniors in Canada in light of current demographic, social and government policy trends. This is followed by a discussion of the components of functional health and formal services use and their correlates and determinants. Several well established indicators of both concepts are subsequently described in terms of their history, reliability and common usage. The paper closes with a discussion of some key methodological issues related to primary and secondary data collection and analysis, overall study design and funding. Recommendations are given in the last section and reproduced here as part of the executive summary"--Executive summary. Includes summary in English and French. Older people Housing Canada.
