Emma is 84 years old and lives in supported living. She would like to move to a retirement home because she is afraid to live alone due to dizziness. Emma has no relatives or friends in her home town. The city has to save money on basic services and therefore it is not possible to place Emma in a home for the elderly. The manager of the supported living resolves the situation by asking the doctor to prescribe a more effective sedative for Emma.
