Method This study used data from the Second National Sample Surveys on Disability in 2006, a nationally representative survey of this topic. SPSS16.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Descriptive analysis, chi-squared test, and logistic regression analysis were used to describe the percentage, compare the different characteristics, and analyze the impact factors of rehabilitation utilization by the disabled elderly population. Results & Discussion Among disabled older adults (n=85,260), only 39.4% of the population utilized rehabilitation services. Risk factors for low utilization of rehabilitation services included very old age, living in a rural area, lack of a spouse, lack of education or education at only a primary school level, living in a central or western region, and being a member of an ethnic minority. Protective factors included higher annual family income, possession of a certificate of disability, social insurance, minimum living security costs, having more than one type of disability, and receiving advice on rehabilitation from an institution. (Details on the risk and protective factors are in Table 1). These results demonstrate the serious situation regarding utilization of rehabilitation services by the disabled elderly and indicate that this is a specific population that requires greater attention. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: abstract proceedings research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
