Patterns of home care and community support preferences among older adults with disabilities in China: a latent class analysis.

Home care is heterogeneous across families. Older adults' degrees of disability and care needs may be varied and complex. We classified different families into homogeneous subgroups to reveal differences in home care patterns. The findings can be used by decision-makers in their attempts to design long-term care arrangements for home care and to adjust the distribution of resources for the needs of older adults with disabilities.
