abstract: 'Societies experiencing rapid demographic transition may expect to face
|
|
|
|
challenges such as accelerated population aging and increasing
|
|
|
|
care-related needs. Decentralization of welfare states and resultant
|
|
|
|
fragmentation of services is gaining increasing attention. In this
|
|
|
|
study, we offer suggestions of how developing countries might move from
|
|
|
|
fragmentation to integration of social and health care services. Using
|
|
|
|
the Health Survey of Turkey (HST-2012) data with 15,000 households of
|
|
|
|
populations'' age 15 and older, we explore challenges to integrating
|
|
|
|
social and health care service strategies in Turkey. Findings include
|
|
|
|
inequities in material and service accessibility between rural and urban
|
|
|
|
settings. Increasing numbers of older widowed women, especially in rural
|
|
|
|
environments, will require direct income assistance over the coming
|
|
|
|
decades. Additional findings include the need for primary and
|
|
|
|
preventative health care services for middle age groups and strategies
|
|
|
|
to address both unemployment among younger generations and barriers to
|
|
|
|
work force participation for women. In conclusion, among rapid
|
|
|
|
transition societies, it will take time to resolve
|
|
|
|
decentralization-related regional inequalities in social and health
|
|
|
|
services. Therefore, information and communications technologies (ICT)
|
|
|
|
should be employed from an intersectionality perspective to more quickly
|
|
|
|
bridge the services integration - regional inequalities gap in Turkey
|
|
|
|
and possibly other societies in transition.'
