Researchers implement an affordable care model that enhances family-based long-term care towards healthy ageing in Thailand

Caption

The community-integrated intermediary care (CIIC) model is a combination of formal care and informal care that is offered primarily at a community level. Its services can help reduce the burden on family caregivers and minimize the need for long-term care. The model provides a comprehensive view of commuity based long-term care to the readers and professionals in gerontology and global health. The boxes within the model also provide the researchers with important areas to invest in the future studies.
