- Grant Description
- The American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) elder population is rapidly growing and the AI/AN population as a whole is aging. The prevalence of chronic disease in this population continues to increase, contributing to a frail elder population with increasing long-term care needs. The goal of this grant is to assist Tribes and urban communities to develop reimbursable or self-financing long-term care services for their frail elders. The need for these services should be clearly established based on demographics and the assesement of rates of functional impairment in the population. The services should be acceptable to elders and their families and consistent with community values in their implementation. The service should be part of an overall vision and plan for a long-term care system to support elders and their families.
