Statistics from the National Center for Health Statistics show that rural elders have greater health needs than urban elders, but receive less care. The barriers to adequate health care among rural elders include ignorance and denial, a tendency to use lay rather than professional treatment, financial and transportation difficulties, and the resistance of medical personnel to adequate care. Professionals can be more effective if they are aware of these special problems.
