Preventing Secondary Conditions in Rural Areas: A Case Management Model.

Seekins, Tom

Human Services in the Rural Environment, v15 n3 p9-13 Win 1992

A rural model for preventing and managing secondary health problems involves workshops that empower adults with disabilities to better manage their own health, and the development of supportive community structures. Four Montana case studies suggest that this prevention model may enhance the health and independence of rural adults with disabilities. (KS)
