What Older People Want From Long-Term Care, And How They Can Get It
Robert L. Kane and
Rosalie A. Kane
Seniors’ long-term care preferences resemble those of younger persons with disabilities, but the two groups are treated differently. Younger persons with disabilities pursue the goal of social integration, whereas safety and efficiency receive undue emphasis and ageist differences prevail in the way older persons are served. Among the changes needed to help older consumers get what they want are empowering older persons and their agents to make better decisions, including providing them with more structure and better consumer information; revising attitudes toward safety and protection; and developing more vigorous advocacy by and for seniors.
