4 people taking care of 4 kids 24/7 in 24 hour shifts. From article: > To get that individualized care, though, they had four social workers and four children. One-to-one. [...] But you couldn’t stray that far from one-to-one without changing the nature of the experience, without industrializing it to the point that individual care is lost. I don't think you need the ratio of worker:child to be 1:1 in order to provide 1:1 care. The alternative might be 20 social workers taking care of a group of 20 kids. It's the same ratio of workers to kids, since no 1 worker will get to deeply know individuals in the group. I agree 1:1 is confusing and not totally accurate but it's fine for illustrating the point.
