εστίες (see below)


Explanation:
residential institutions can be anything, from homes for the elderly (γηροκομεία) οικισμοί για εργατων homes for neglected children, for the poor and suchlike. I know that IATE offers < οίκος ευγηρίας >, but I dont agree with this term, since there are many other institutions to be understood by residential institutions, see e.g. the following link:Children living in residential institutions - Social Policy for ... - Follow-up to Recommendation N° R(2005)5 of the Committee of Ministers to member states on the rights of children living in residential institutions ...

I would use <estia > and add the category of its inhabitants, such as e.g. φοιτητική εστία. Besides, outbreaks δοντ οoccur σε οίκη ευγηρίας μόνο.

agree  d_vachliot (X): Όντως αυτό είναι τα residential institutions. Ίσως εστίες κοινωνικής πρόνοιας ή εστίες περίθαλψης.

  -> ευχαριστώ !
agree  Ioanna Orfanoudaki: ίσως λίγο περισσότερο συγκείμενο να είχε βοηθήσει για να καταλάβουμε αν πρόκειται για ηλικιωμένους, για άτομα με ειδικές ανάγκες, κλπ.

disagree  Marina Koutraki: δεν χρησιμοποιείται η λέξη "εστία" - εκτός από "φοιτητικές εστίες", υπάρχει η Εργατική Εστία που είναι οργανισμός και μετά "εργατικές κατοικίες", "ιδρύματα", "οικοτροφεία" ο αγγλικός όρος είναι πολύ ευρής ώστε να εξαντληθεί πλήρως σε μια ελληνική λέξη

  -> and what about <εστίες κοινωνικής προνοια > do a bit of googling and you´ll find many articles like the following Τη ζοφερή περίοδο της Τουρκοκρατίας τα 80 μοναστήρια της Β. Ηπείρου αναδείχθηκαν όχι μονό κέντρα λατρείας αλλά και εστίες κοινωνικής πρόνοιας
neutral  Efi Maryeli (X): Αν είναι να χρησιμοποιηθεί ο όρος εστίες, τότε μάλλον πρέπει να μπει και το "κοινωνικής πρόνοιας" μαζί. Ίσως θα ήταν καλύτερο το "ιδρύματα"
