Zorg voor kwetsbare ouderen: behoefte, gebruik en passendheid
The overall aim of this thesis is to evaluate care for vulnerable community-dwelling older persons (≥75). Care includes health care, but also home care, living care and psychosocial care. We focus on a chain of care decisions and actions including self-perceived care needs, care utilization and appropriateness of care. In this introductory chapter we provide general background on these concepts and on the group of vulnerable older persons. Research questions, methods and outline of this thesis will be addressed successively.
