Two addresses for death events

I have a few ancestors in my family tree who died in hospital. I have put the hospital name and address down as to where my ancestor died but I also have a home address for them too. Do I put the home address in as a separate resident attribute for the year they died?
What do other people put under these circumstances?

Thats a good question Hannah, the same also applies to births and marriages
I currently have additonal custom fact sets as such Address at death, Address at birth and Address at marriage.
But I would be interested in knowing the best way to record this.

I normally put them in as residence attributes, linked to the certificate sources.

Thanks Nick and Jane
That sounds like a good idea.
I'd better get on and modify my existing entries
