Morbidity and housing 10-years after shelter use, a study of homeless men in Helsinki, 2004-2010: Agnes Stenius-Ayoade

The aim of the study was to evaluate the prognosis of homeless shelter users in terms of morbidity and housing outcomes and to identify factors that predict being independently housed 10 years later.
