American Indian and Alaska Native Roundtable Report on Long Term Care:
Final Report 2002 [.pdf]
<http://www.ihs.gov/PublicInfo/PublicAffairs/PressReleases/Press_Release_2002/Final_LTC_Report_ALL.pdf>
This 120-page report is the culmination of a roundtable forum held in April
2002 to discuss the multitude of issues involved with providing long term
care to Native Americans and Alaska Natives. At the core of the report are
five papers prepared by policy makers and practitioners in the field, along
with subsequent substantive discussion of their recommendations and
implications for practice. Paper topics include the incorporating Indian
elder's teachings and tribal values into a long term care scenario and the
provisioning of long term care for Indian elders in an urban setting. The
overarching considerations of the roundtable forum included commitment;
coordination; and, in particular, interagency collaboration. The report
concludes with several appendices, including a nursing home survey and an
economic analysis of long term care. [KMG]
