Elders' attitudes and access to health care: a comparison of Cuban immigrants and native-born Americans.

K Siddharthan, K Sowers-Hoag.   

Abstract

We report on findings of an empirical study of attitudes and access to health care by elderly Cuban immigrants and native-born Americans in Southeast Florida. Major findings based on a random sample of 1,216 respondents indicate a need for bilingual educational materials to inform consumers of health support services available and ethnic-sensitive public health services for the indigent Cuban population.
