| Annotation | Examines whether level of confinement, such as to chair, bed or the home, sufficiently reflects dependency status and living conditions to be useful for planning services for older people with disabilities. The present study based on three region of France may be representative of France as a whole, but application of this indicator to other European countries should be preceded by a preliminary validation involving regional or national health survey data for each country. The use of the indicator should be complemented by individual and assessment procedures. (RH). |
