[Planning and controlling care services for elderly migrants--an analysis of health-care reporting in nursing homes and at home].
Elderly migrants are a rapidly growing group in Germany. Well-grounded health and nursing care reports which deal with the situation of migrants are therefore necessary to secure an appropriate local and national planning of care for elderly migrants. Also quality control and development need substantiated data in order to ensure proper nursing care services for this segment of the population. This contribution explores whether and to what extent data sources provide information about access, quality and use of care services by migrants. The result: the major data sources for regional and national care planning and quality control render no specific information about migrants. This is problematic since several studies indicate severe deficits in nursing care services for this group.
