Abstract: Increased numbers of primary care and

advanced practice nurses with unique generalist

skills will be required to meet the accelerating

physiologic and sociocultural health care needs of

rural population. Several factors have been identified that will influence the demands and position

of community-based nurses in rural practice settings during the next decade. A back-to-basics type

of health care offered out of a growing elderly population; technological breakthroughs that make it

possible for more chronically ill patients to live at

home; serious substance abuse and other adolescent problems; AIDS; and high infant morbidity

and mortality statistics are only some of the concen$ that will demand nursing intervention. These

changes speak to the need for improved nursing

coordination, stronger collegial relationships, and

better communication between physicians and

nurses. Health care is moving in new directions to

offer more efficient and technologically sophisticated care. These changes enhance the need for

clinically expert educators who teach and jointly

practice in programs with a rural focus. Telecommunicationg and heightened computer literacy,

will play a major role both in nursing education

and clinical practice. The goals of kindergarteu

through 12th grades health promotion and disease

prevention strategies in school health will be the

nonn and will require better prepared, and positions for, school nurses. More midwives and public

health nurses will be needed to care for the

growing population of semally active adolescents

who are in need of family planning and prenatal

care. Underinsured and indigent populations will

continue to fall within the purview of midlevel

practitioners, ils will providing anesthesia services

in small rural hospitals. The transition of some

rural hospitals into expanded primary care units

(..g., EACHs and RPCHs), and new models of

case management will greatly influence nursing

demands. This paper will further identi$ critical ar

Abstact: We used the focus group interview technique as a preliminary research step in developing

a nutrition education intervention for rural seniors

who, because of less than optimal eating habits and

changing demographicg are an important target

audience. Sixty-eight well, active, rural North

Dakota seniors, 60 years or older, from communi'

ties of 2,5N or fewer people, participated in five

focus groups conducted in late summer 1988. As a

qualitative research approach, focus group interviews offer a means of obtaining in-depth information on a specific topic from representatives of a

target audience in a discussion group atmosphere.

Focus groups require careful preparation and

structuring and should include a capable

moderator, a prepared discussion guide, carefully

recruited participants, and a comfortable setting.

The process generated ideas that we are using to

develop a health promotion nutrition intervention

that will be a mailed-home approach, including use

of incentives, social role models, cholesterol

screening, and learning activities. The intervention

relies on the interest and ability of seniors to make

positive health changes. We conclude that the

focus gloup approach is useful in developing nutrition education interventions.

Abstract: To examine supplement purchase practices and attitudes toward supplements of rural and

urban elderly, two questionnaires were designed.

One questionnaire included demographic questions, aD attitude scale, and questions concerning

supplement purchases and sotuces of information

about nutrition. The second questionnaire contained an advertisement about calcium supplements followed by questions regarding means to

"improve calcium" and health concerns. The rural

elderly had a significantly lower mean education

level and a signilicantly higber number of misconceptions. The average expenditures on supplements were $52.00 per month for the total group

and sources of information were media, physicians,

family and friends. In response to the advertisement, nearly one-third of the respondents reported

that they would be unlikely to take calcium supplements to improve calcium even though 86.7Vo

stated they would take galgirrm supplements to

prevent health problems and 5t.7Vo believed there

could be dangers in taking calcium supplements.

The most commonly reported means to improve

calcirrm were to increase milk and to eat cheese

(86.7Vo each). Contradictions in the responses may

indicate that these elderly :ue susceptible to advertising i-plnog supplements are needed to prevent

health problems.

counties have accounted for over half of all nonmetropolitan population grow[h and they have

grown at a rate over four times greater than that

for the rs6aining nonmetropolitan counties. Post1980 emplolment gowth in nonmetropolitan retirement counties also far outstripped that for the

remaining nonmetropolitan counties. l.ocal government fiscal data indicate increased expenditures

for services to meet the needs of growing elderly

populations. Strategies for community development practitioners to use in assessing the sffects

of retirement migration as a local development option are discussed.

Abstract: This study uses path analysis to e>ramine

data for 304 towns and villages in Saskatchewan

for 191-1.986, and assesses: (1) how population

size effects change in the elderly population; and

(2) how such change influences the diversitv of local services and the vol,rme of retail sales. Consistent with central place theory, the gnins and losses

in the elderly population in small towns are found

to be positively related to the relative population

size of the towns. In turn, local retail sales and the

functional diversiry of towns are largely dependent

upon change in the elderly population, although

the distance from a ciry and locai economic conditions also effect services and retail sales. The study

concludes that services and retail business in rural

Saskatchewatr are largely 5u56ainsd by the elderly

population, the deciine of which nay signilv the

demise of the economies of many small towns.

Abstract: Falls are the leading cause of accidents

among those ages 65 and older and the largest

single cause of death due to injury of the elderly.

Environmental factors play a key role in the probability of a fall in the homes of the elderly. A community health promotion team approach can

reduce the prevalence rate of injuries due to falls

by eliminating the risk factors precipitating the injuries. A comprehensive program in Wilmington,

OH, will incorporate the use of the community

senior citizens' center, the local college, fire department, local radio stations and newspapers,

community churches, local merchants, educators,

and the medical community. Extrinsic factors that

previously have been linked directly to falls will be

identified in the home inspections. The "Fixer-UpTeam," composed of college students and community volunteerg will recrify any unsafe condition

found by the inspection term. Local merchants and

lumber yards will donate materials to make needed

repairs. Active senior citizens will be trained as

part of the inspection teem, allowing this program

to be self-perpetuating. Compared with the national prevalence rates, this program will show a

decrease in injuries caused by falls in the homes

of the participants of this program.

65 years of age and those 65 and over. On the

average, 30 percent of the elderly women who live

alone andZ,l. percent of the younger women are in

poverty. Multivariate analyses of poverty rates

based on data from the 1980 census indicate that

lack of participation in the labor force, lower levels

of education, and being under ?0 or over 50 years

of age explain much of the variance for younger

women. For elderly women, the most important

variables were whether they had only social security income, had less education, and were nonwhite. In both age groups, women in small towns

or rural areas were more likely to be in poverty

than those in central cities or suburbs when all

other variables were controlled.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to exarnine

the joint effects of gender, ethnicity, seasonal variations and place of residence on nutrient intake

among elderly residents of Southwestern

Louisiana. Three hundred and fifty-one elderly

subjects volunteered and completed all four interviews evenly spaced throughout the year. Multiple

analysis of covariance and hierarchal log linear regression were used to examine the joint effects of

the independent variables on nutrient intake of

eight nutrients; calories, protein, iron, calcirrm, vitamin C, vitamin A, riboflavin and thiamin. There

were differences between males and females for

the intake of calories, protein, iron and vitamin C.

Over time, there were differences between rural

and urban subjects. Rural subjects showed greater

t2
RT]RAL AI{ERICA'S ELDERLY

seasonal variability than urban subjects. In addition" the three ethnic groups showed different pattems of seasonal variability. When the nutrient

intake data were dichotomiznd at 68Vo of. the Reco-mended Dietary Allowances, we found that

Blacks were more likely to report values below

68Vo of the RDA than were either Caucasian

group. Also, males were more likely to report

values below 68Vo of the RDA than were females.

This study illutrates the need for assessing the

effects of- multiple factors on nutrient intakes. It

also shows that there can be significant differences

even between nominally similar ethnic groups.

With the increased nutritional risk that the elderly

face, further research is needed to clari.fu and extend these results.

Abstract: Following a discussion of the role of migration in the agng of rural populations and of

consequent implications for service provision in

rural communities, a case study featuring demographic and service use data for Grey Countv, Ontario, is presented. Cohort Survival Analysis of

census data for the period L97L-L986 indicates a

consistent net in-migration of elderly into the

county and a complex but predictable pattern of

elderly relocation from townships to villages and

towns within Grey. The demographic analysis is

complemented and extended by the examination of

survey data on the residential history and service

use of n 5ample of elderly residents drawn from

two communities in Grey County. The survey

results provide valuable clues for the interpretation

of the demographic analysis and reveal residential

history to be a potentially important pre-condition

of dependence on formal services intended for the

mainlssance of elderly persons in the gs66rrnity.

The paper concludes with a discussion of the need

for local analysis of migration impacts and of the

relationship between such impacts and longstanding problems of rural service provision.

Abstract: Nutrient intakes of. ?393 rural free-living

elderly persons aged 65 and older ls5iding in 11

southern states were studied. Data being reported

herein include food intake by a Z+fu recall, meat

preparation settinp and use of dietary supplements and socioeconomic variables. High percentages of monthly income were spent on food,

particularly among black females and participation

rates in community service programs, including

senior centers and home delivered meals, were

low. Caloric intakes by rural males were 1603 and

1365 kcal, respectively, for whites and blacks; L270

and 1259 kcal for white and black females, respectively. Means for most of the nutrients equalled or

exceeded the RDAs for this age group except energy and calcium. Age had little influence on nutrient intake. Race showed as a significant

determinant on the nutrient intake index computed

from 11. key nutrient intakes; however, the significant effect of race disappeared when either income

or educational level was used as covariate. Thus,

the disparities in intakes between the black and

white elders were due partly to income rather than

race. Of these rural elders, 46.5Vo consumed meals

alone. Eating alone per se did not have a significant impact on nutrient consumption, but 35.2%

of those eating alone indicated that they ate less,

had fewer choices or ate more. Dietary supplements were used by 33.9% of rual elders, and

their intakes of several nutrients were higher than

by nonusers. More effort by community services to

reach rural elders is needed, particularly those in

the low socioeconomic spectrum.

Abstract: There are approximately 600 Community

and Migrant Health Centers (C/MHCs) providing

preventive and primary health care services principally to medically underserved rural and urban

areas across the United States. The need to

develop geriatric programs within C/MHCs is

clear. Less clear is how and under what circumstances a comprehensive geriatric program can be

adequately financed. The Health Resources and

Services Administration of the Public Health Service contracted with La Jolla Management Corporation and Duke Universiry Center on Aging to

identify successful techniques for obtaining funding

by examining L0 "good practice' C/MHC geriatric

programs. The results from this study indicated

that effective techniques included using a variety

of funding sources, meintaining accurate cost-peruser information, developing a marketing strategy

and user incentives, collaborating with the area

agency on aging and other community organizations, and developing special services for the elderly. Developing cost-per-user information allowed

for identi$ing appropriate drawing card" services,

negotiating sound reimbursement rates and contracts with other providers, and assessing the financial impact of changing service mixes. A marketing

stratery was rsed to enhance the ability of the

centers to provide a comprehensive package of services. Collaboration with the area agency on aging

and other community organizations and volunteers

in the agng network was found to help establish

referral networks and subsequently increase the

number of elderly patients served. Finally, development of special services for the elderly, such as

adult day care, case management, and health education, was found to increase program visibility,

opportunities to work with the network of services

for the aging, and clinical utilization.

Abstract: As American lifespans increase, there is

greater concern for the quality of those longer

lives. The Department of Health alrd f{rrman Services, through its many component agencies, has

inaugurated a major initiative to promote health

and fitness among older Americans to improve life

qualiry and to reduce health care costs. The older

population is a fertile ground for such an initiative,

because studies indicate that the elderly are extremely health-conscious and very willing to adopt

habits that will maintain good health. Investigation

disclosed six target areas of concentration at which

the health promotion initiative could be aimed:

fitness-exercise, nutrition, safe and proper use of

drugs and alcohol, accident prevention, other

preventive senrices, and smoking cessation. The initiative includes cooperative programs with States;

dissemination of printed information; nutritious

meals for the elderly; a Food and Drug Administration consumer education program; Centers for

Disease Control programs on accident prevention;

a special task force to deal with alzheimer's disease; an4 in cooperation with States, a media campaign of health promotion for the elderly. At least

three national health and senior citizens organiza'

tions are working closely with HHS agencies on

the initiative. A separate Department effort involves the encourgement of fast-growing health

maintenance organizations to promote health and

prevention for their Medicare members and the

persuasion of Medicare beneficiaries generally to

seek second medical or surgical opinions. State and

local government and the private sector, responding to Department initiatives, have also been developing programs for the agng. Their interest and

participation ensures that special health promotion

and disease prevention efforts directed toward elderly Americans will continue and proliferate.

Abstract: Extracu The elderly, especially the rural

elderly, are more likely to have housing problems

than other groups. The number of rural elderly

households increased 1.6 percent between L974 and

1979 compared with an increase of only 10 percent

for all U.S. households. ln 1979,15 percent of U.S.

rural elderly heads of horsehold lived in inadequate housing compared with 8 percent of the urban elderly. Inadequate housing has one or more

of the following flaws, among others: incomplete

plumbing facilities, incomplete kitchen facilitieg

leaking roof, holes in walls or ceilings, ild exposed

wiring. In addition, one out of five elderly

homeowners in rural are:rs and about hdf of elderly renters had troule affordi"g their homes.

Abstract: Relatively little attention has been given

to the kin ties of rural older adults. To partially fill

this gap in knowledge, kin selection tieory was

used as a conceptul framework to explore two

questions on the extent rural older adults expect

and receive assistance from the range of affinal and

consanguineal kin and the factors that best explain

the current level of support provided by each of

the kin types in the family system. Analysis was

based on interviews conducted h 1985-1986 with

368 rural older adults in the Piedmont region of

North Carolina. Expectations of kin assistance

were much higher than the actual level of support

that was provided. Both expected and actual levels

of assistance declined as the level of consanguineous kin and associated affinal ties decreased.

The level of support provided by kin groups was

mainly a function of geographic distance to kin and

norms of obligation.

Abstract: Extract: The importance of mealtime

companionship and social interaction to improvements of food consumption, nutritional status, and

morale in the elderly have been stressed but the

research supporting this concept is minimal. The

present study determined the relationship benveen

mealtime companisnship and morale among a representative group of418 rural adults aged 65 years

or older. Multiple regression analysis was used to

determine if there were signilicant differences in

the morale of older adults who usually ate alone

versus those who ate with others. Controls were

held on marital status, educational level, sex, and

self-rated health. The data showed that mealtime

companisnship was of no relative importance to

the morale of older adults when other variables

were considered especially health. The data supported the literature with regard to the greater importance of health to psychological well-being than

social factors such as marital status, educational

background, sex, and social contact, per se. The

conclusions suggest that any efforts to alleviate

problems a^ssociated with social isolation among

the rural elderly should include, more importantly,

viable health components that address the multiplicity of their health needs. (author)

Rural are:N; Elderly (65 + years); Nutritional assessment; Nutritional status

Abstract: Extracil In order to evaluate the nutritional status of the elderly, whether for research,

clinical evaluatioq or the development of community health programs, the assessment of food intake

of both elderly individuals and populations is essential. The rural elderly are at risk of developing

nutritional problems because of their limited economic resources, transportation, health services,

and increased isolation. While the rual elderly

represent the greatest segment of Americans over

age 65,, there is little information about their food

intake and dietary problems. The purpose of this

research was to conduct a pilot study which would

identi$ the most reliable menns of assessing food

intake among a population of rural elderly citizens.

The results of this investigation suggest that the

3-day food record and the diet history were more

reliable than the 24-hour recall in measuring the

food intake of 30 females and L7 males living in

rural North Carolina. (author)

diets. Factors such as the need for assistance with

shopping and cooking, living situation,

vitamin/mineral supplementation, prescription

d*gr, and dentition did not significantly predict

nutritional intake in either the urban or the rnral

cohorts. However, 50Vo to 70Vo of both the rural

and the urban homebound elderly needed assistance with cooking and shopping for food The

rural elderly relied on family members for help

with shopping and cooking to a greater extent than

did their urban counterparts. We conclude that nutrient intake of the homebound elderly is not affected by geographic location. However, both rural

and urban clients are at risk for developing nutrient deficiencies.

Abstract: Using a mailed survey, we gathered data

to examine selected aspects of nutrition attitudes,

knowledge, and practices of two groups of randomly selected older individuals living in rural

areas. In one group respondents were 75 througb

85 years ol4 and in the other group respondents

were 60 through 70 years old. A senior nutrition

survey and a shelf inventory were used to obtain

information from the 698 respondents. The 60-

through 7O-year-old group expressed significantly

more (P<.001) positive attitudes for efficacy, intention, and outcome expectation than the older

group. In addition, the younger group had a higher

level (P <.01) of knowledge about fat and salt.

They also tended to make more healthful food selections in 7 of L1. categories of the shelf inventory.

Our study suggests that 75- through S5-year-old individuals have different nutrition attitudes, knowledge, and practices. Nutrition education should

focus on positive messages that are age appropriate, practical, and achievable. Specific topics

should include information about beneficial out28
comes of healthful eating behaviors.

Abstract: This paper sumrnarizes the responses of

rural elderly people to a variety of symptoms experienced during a three-week period. Responses

to symptoms included causal attributions, consultation patterns, and intervention strategies. Data recorded in diaries during a three-week period

highlight the importance of lay care in the illnesses

of older people. Most slmptoms were managed by

older respondents themselves. When symptoms

were discussed with someone else, the consultant

was most likely a family member or friend rather

than a health care professional. Only one third of

the respondents contacted any formal provider

about any of their symptoms. The majority of respondents combined medical and nonmedical explanations in interpreting their symptoms. The

most frequent response to a symptom was doing

asthing. The next two most commonly reported interventions were over-the-counter medications and

activity limitation. Analpes revealed few differences among residential categories in patterns of

illness behavior. Rural-urban differences often disappeared when controlling for _demographic an{

socioeconomic background which covary with

residence.

Rural communities; Towns; Attachment behavior;

Abstract: This article explores the phenomenon of

place attachment as a component of the positive

image of small town life in rural America. Ethnographic research on elderly residents of an Appalachian community reveals that attachment to

place, especially among the old-old, can be subsumed within a motif of "insideness" that has physical, social and autobiographical dimensions.

Increasing mobility, socialization within a post

Older American's Act era, and changing values

may be undermining the image for the young-old

and resulting in different manifestations of place

attachment. In addition, it is postulated that the

diversification of rural and small town elderly

populations to include back-to-the-landers, return

migrants and ameniry retiree migrants, is resulting

in the emergence of multiple images of small town

life. Each image is associated with a different style

of attachment to place. Rural community psychologists need to become increasingly sensitive to

diverse manifestations of place attachment tmong

their clients.

Abstract: The availability of adult children as potential caregivers is particularly critical to the rural

elderly because of the dearth of health and human

services in rural iueas. This paper anallzes proxi-iry to adult children nmong a large 5a"'ple of

older persons with some degree of functional impairment, employing four residence categories and

two indicators of proximity: coresidence with a

child, and residence within a half-hour's travel

time. Resuls show that older residents of large

cities are most likely to live with children and that

large-city and farm residents are more likely than

small-city or rural nonfarm residents to live near

children. Implications regarding the potential for

family caregiving for the impaired elderly are discussed.

Abstract: One focus of recent community development efforts has been to attract retirees to rural

areas. The feasibility of such a strategJ is enhanced

if county-level migration patterns of persons 65

yezus of age and older shift over time and differ

from those of the general population, particularly

during times of economic recession. Focusing on

nonmetropolitan retirement migration in the

Pacific Northwest, this paper explores these issues

as well as the tpes of rtrral counties that are most

attractive to retired migrants. It then e:ramines the

relative ability of three models-using amenities,

service-availability, nd cost-of-living factors,

respectively, to explain nonmetropolitan retirement migration between 1980 and 1985.

Abstract: In an effort to solve the problems associated with meal progtams for the rural elderly, a

persons per day in 13 essentially rural counties, at

a break-even rate of $1.57 per plate. To assist

others who might want to operate such a plan, the

authors describe how the RK was developed, how

it operates and what clients and staff thought of

the services. Data tables on staff, floorspace, and

equipment, before and after the RK was-estab'

be difficult to evaluate. Some plans will increase

their income taxes or make them ineligible for

Absnact: The goal of this special issue on rural

agrng is to present issues of relevance to the psychological, social, and physical well-being of older

Americans who reside in rural environments, particularly those liuiog in small rurual communities

experiencing acute and chronic changes associated

with the restructuring of the rural economy. In this

introductory article, we present a transactional approach to environmental stress which we use to

identify and ta.:<onomizn multi-level positive and

negative outcomes experienced by elderly residents

of small, economically-endangered towns. We use

this contextual ta:<onomy to offer an overview of

these possible outcomes, and discuss their

relevance for rural community psychologists and

other professionals concerned with the mental

health of rural elderly individuals. The invited articles in this special issue, each dealing with issues

described by this frameworlg are introduced.

Absttzct: Extract: Most changes in the size and

composition of a population occur because of the

movement of residents rather than birth and death

rates. Migrants from metro areas, who have provided much of the growth in rural areas since the

1970's, have tended to move to nonmetro counties

that ranked high in amenities. Job-related reasons

were less important to these new residents.

Ifuowing the causes of nonmetro growth is important because toda/s mobile society makes plenning

by small communities diffrcult. This report assesses

migration to nonmetro counties during 1975-80,

whether the migrants ca.me from metro or other

nonmetro areas, and to what region they were

most likely to move.
