Description
Alaska Native people have a long tradition of caring for elders that are no longer able to do things for themselves. In rural Alaska, there are particular challenges in delivering services that may be typically available to seniors in more urban areas. This publication discusses achieving best practice in long term care for Alaska Native and American Indian elders.
