About This Book
Researchers and practitioners, pairing to co-author most chapters, present detailed information on a wide range of community-based services that are needed by and available to elders living in rural areas. These contributors explore how such services can be developed given the realities of rural settings, resources, and populations. They identify the barriers to development and operation, and offer possible solutions.
Specific topics include senior centers, referral systems, housing and transportation, employment and retirement, health promotion, and health care. This volume features section overviews as well as an informative, thorough introduction and epilogue that highlight common themes and issues.
. Researchers, planners, practitioners, and policy makers interested in gerontology, social work, health services, and nursing will appreciate the research-based information Providing Community-Based Services to the Rural Elderly contains.
