使用短期和长期残疾情景(N= 537)的长期护理(LTC)的位置之间的社区居住的老年人的偏好进行了评估。使用Wilcoxon秩和检验,我们评估了易感因素、促成因素和需求因素对经济困难、家庭压力和个人压力的感知差异。使用逻辑回归,我们确定哪些因素是预测的LTC位置的偏好。体弱和贫穷的老人和独居的人有更多的经济和家庭的关注;较高的社会阶层的老人预期更多的个人压力;对长期护理设施持负面态度的老人,谁有较少的经济,家庭和个人的关注,谁是已婚的更有可能喜欢家庭护理。
Preference for long-term care (LTC) location among community-dwelling elders was assessed using short- and long-term disability scenarios (N= 537). Using Wilcoxon rank sum tests, we assessed differences in perceptions of financial difficulty, family strain, and personal stress by predisposing, enabling, and need factors. Using logistic regression we determined which factors were predictive of preference for LTC location. Frail and poor elders and those who lived alone had more financial and familial concerns; elders of higher social class anticipated more personal stress; elders with negative attitudes toward LTC facilities, who had fewer financial, familial and personal concerns, and who were married were more likely to prefer home care.
