Abstract:
Current long-term care policy prioritizes eldercare in home and community settings rather than institutions in order to reduce government spending and maintain the quality of life for frail elders. A considerable body of literature has adopted Andersen's behavioral model and geographical perspectives to illustrate the links between related factors and the arrangements for care. By synthesizing Andersen's behavior model and geographic dimension of care, this study investigates the complex landscape of eldercare and shows how multilevel factors (individual, community, and macro-level) affect frail elders, their caregivers, and family members involved in services and care.
