Training in Support of the American Indian Eldercare Campaign Replication of an American Indian Home-Care Training Program.
John, Robert; And Others
Educational Gerontology, v22 n8 p723-34 Dec 1996
As part of the National Eldercare Campaign, a Minnesota project replicated a paraprofessional home care worker curriculum for training American Indians to serve the frail elderly. It addressed the need to incorporate minority aging knowledge into caregiver training, provided better community-based home care, and gave employment opportunities to the American Indian community.
