Abstract:
New directions in health maintenance for the aged may be useful in preventing or delaying their submission to custodial care. A description of present and projected prevention health programs in communty centers is presented, including suggested changes in staffing patterns. Such programs are far less costly than nursing home care and can preserve the happiness and dignity of the Jewish aged.
