Abstract

Effective and value-based healthcare for older people is becoming increasingly important as the number of older adults who require high-quality long-term care for chronic illness continues to increase. How can healthcare providers best serve the needs of those who are both frail and elderly? Models of care must incorporate cost containment without compromising participants’ quality of care or quality of life. Though frail elders say they want to remain at home in their community, frequently, complex medical conditions and lack of financial and community resources may make nursing home placement the only option [1].
