Healthcare Decision-Making Among Dual-Eligible Immigrants
Whose choice? Self-Determination and the Motivations of Paid Family and Friend Caregivers
This mixed method study focuses on the experiences of 383 family and friend caregivers paid to provide personal care services to Medicaid-eligible disabled and elderly through California's In-Home Supportive Services program. While much discussion about consumer-directed care concerns the selfdetermination of care recipients, this study investigates related caregivers' perceived choices about assuming these paid caregiver roles. We find that care…
Paying Friends, Family Members, or Strangers to Be Home-Based Personal Assistants
This study describes consumers who hire friends, family members, or strangers as paid personal assistants and compares service satisfaction among the three groups. From surveying 511 consumers of self-directed home care services, the authors found that consumers who hire friends as workers are younger and more educated than consumers who hire family members and strangers, and they are more impaired than consumers with strangers as workers. The fr…
The Impact of External Funding on Independent Living Centers and Their Organizational Partners
This article describes a longitudinal case study of 11 independent living centers (ILCs) that received funding in the early 1990s from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation for the purpose of improving service systems for people with disabilities. The article examines the changes that occurred in the organizational networks of each of the 11 ILCs over the funding period. Changes in specific organizational partners, exchanges of resources between the…
A Normative Analysis of Home Care Goals
Home- and community-based services (HCBS) can contribute to full social and economic participation in society by people with disabilities. Of 16 client-level and system-level HCBS goals, three are emphasized; targeting the neediest, individual choice, and strengthening informal systems. Projections are made of how selected goals would play out under two different resource conditions. Efforts to expand and strengthen HCBS involve trade-offs--for e…
Skilled nursing facility care for persons with Aids
We compared average daily hours of care for patients with and without acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) in a hospital-based skilled nursing facility. Patients with AIDS averaged over an hour more direct nursing care per patient day (6.5 vs 5.4 hours). These findings support other reports of greater nursing time and higher costs of caring for nursing home patients with AIDS
Public policy, federalism, and Aids
The AIDS epidemic poses important challenges to the American political system. In the context of AIDS, relationships between the public and private sectors as well as those among federal, state, and local governments have had a significant impact in shaping the nations response to the epidemic. The character of health policy in the United States has in large part been determined by uncertainty regarding the appropriate role of the public sector a…
