As to the economic and financial aspects of aged care, further studies showed that the bundling of services would be the best, except for older people with dementia, specifically the ambulant and aggressive ones (Hogan 2005).

Other studies on costs appeared contradictory. One said that costs of new buildings would be higher, while another said old buildings would cost more (Hogan).
