老年人的长期护理偏好与年轻残疾人相似，但这两个群体受到不同的待遇。较年轻的残疾人追求社会融合的目标，而安全和效率受到了不适当的强调，在为老年人提供服务的方式中，年龄歧视的差异普遍存在。帮助老年消费者得到他们想要的东西所需的变化之一是赋予老年人及其代理人做出更好决定的权力。包括为他们提供更多的结构和更好的消费者信息;改变对安全和保护的态度;以及由老年人和为老年人开展更有力的宣传。
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.
