Description
Ann Nguyen and Katrina Ellis present in 2024 a symposium on support systems for older adults, viewed through a health equity lens. Four papers take up social and psychological forces that shape later life health. One studies how racial discrimination, social ties, and cell aging intertwine among older African Americans, finding wide variety in experience and in stress response.
A second reviews what protects people living with dementia from elder abuse. A third finds that caregivers in rural areas report worse physical health than city caregivers. A fourth asks health workers what blocks caregivers from managing fall risk. Together the papers point to support gaps that fall unevenly by race, place, and role.
