Utilization of services among Korean, Vietnamese, and Non‐Hispanic White caregivers for persons with dementia/Alzheimer's disease
Korean and Vietnamese caregivers for PWD demonstrated lower utilization of in-home support and adult day care services compared to non-Hispanic Whites. Factors potentially contributing to this disparity may include limited availability of services in languages other than English and a lack of culturally appropriate options. Further research is needed to understand the specific reasons behind the underutilization of these dementia/Alzheimer's care services among these racial groups. Such insights could inform efforts to improve access and enhance cultural competence in service provision.
