Abstract

This article explores the parallel structures and service delivery systems of the Older Americans' Act and the Ryan White CARE Act, argues that social workers should have a working knowledge of both pieces of public policy, and suggests integration or coordination of aging and HIV services. Two vignettes illuminate the issues and implications for HIV and aging network social workers. The authors argue that HIV social workers should know more about services for older people and that gerontological social workers should know more about HIV services so that HIV-infected and HIV-affected older people do not remain unserved, unseen, and unheard.

摘要

本文探讨了《美国老年人法案》和《瑞安·怀特艾滋病紧急救援计划法案》的平行结构及服务提供系统，认为社会工作者应了解这两项公共政策，建议整合或协调老龄与艾滋病服务。两个案例说明了艾滋病与老龄网络社会工作者面临的问题及影响。作者认为，艾滋病社会工作者应更多了解老年人服务，老年社会工作者应更多了解艾滋病服务，这样感染艾滋病及受艾滋病影响的老年人就不会得不到服务、被忽视且无人倾听。
