abstract: 'Background: The availability of family caregivers of older people is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
decreasing in Italy as the number of migrant care workers (MCWs) hired
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
by families increases. There is little evidence on the influence of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
socioeconomic factors in the employment of MCWs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Method: We analyzed baseline data from 438 older people with moderate
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Alzheimer''s disease (AD), and their family caregivers enrolled in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Up-Tech trial. We used bivariate analysis and multilevel regressions to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
investigate the association between independent variables-education,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
social class, and the availability of a care allowance-and three
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
outcomes-employment of a MCW, hours of care provided by the primary
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
family caregiver, and by the family network (primary and other family
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
caregivers).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Results: The availability of a care allowance and the educational level
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
were independently associated with employing MCWs. A significant
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
interaction between education and care allowance was found, suggesting
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that more educated families are more likely to spend the care allowance
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to hire a MCW.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Discussion: Socioeconomic inequalities negatively influenced access both
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to private care and to care allowance, leading disadvantaged families to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
directly provide more assistance to AD patients. Care allowance
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
entitlement needs to be reformed in Italy and in countries with similar
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
long-term care and migration systems.'
