However, these initiatives often overlook underrepresented populations, such as lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer, and two-spirit (LGBTQ2S+) older adults, who have unique social and historical contexts which impact their aging experiences. The study involved a survey and key-informant interviews with local leaders, volunteers, staff, and/or LGBTQ2S+ older adults involved in initiatives that were both age and LGBTQ2S+ friendly to explore what it means for a community to be age and LGBTQ2S+ friendly and learn what can further be done to promote these communities. Through a qualitative template analysis, our findings suggest that safety within the social environment should be at the forefront of age-friendly policy initiatives. Considerations and avenues to create this safety and an overall culture of acceptance for all older adults include recognizing generational differences among aging cohorts, increasing LGBTQ2S+ visibility and involvement and highlighting the importance of policy and cultural humility. These considerations and the voices of LGBTQ2S+ older adults need to be integrated into age-friendly community planning and policies to ensure they are inclusive and that all older adults feel safe and can thrive within their communities.","PeriodicalId":47121,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Aging & Social Policy","volume":" ","pages":"888-911"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9680373","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An extensive review of over 800 pages of public records was conducted to understand how LGBTQ+ older adults were depicted within the discourse and to identify the authorities responsible for their recognition. The findings highlight the unequal representation of social identities, notably the absence of transgender and queer older adults in the examined texts. Authorities wielded discourses of power and accountability to influence perceptions of LGBTQ+ older adults, focusing on their risks and vulnerabilities. This emphasis on deficits, without acknowledgment of strengths and protective factors, has implications for age-friendly initiatives and may lead to an oversight of information necessary for the development of culturally sensitive interventions. To foster communities that are not only friendly but also equitable and just, policymakers must recognize and address subgroup variations within the LGBTQ+ population. This research underscores the importance of ensuring that age-friendly initiatives are inclusive and responsive to the diverse needs of LGBTQ+ older adults.","PeriodicalId":47121,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Aging & Social Policy","volume":" ","pages":"912-928"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139933539","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Those supporting CMS approving aducanumab argued FDA's approval was appropriate and the final decision for treatment should be left to patients and their doctors. Those against or uncertain of CMS approving aducanumab stated concerns about its clinical benefits, risks, burdens, and costs; many of these stakeholders instead argued CMS institute Coverage with Evidence Development. Lastly, regardless of perspective, stakeholders encouraged CMS to cover diagnostic tools to support Alzheimer's disease research and treatments.

This may have implications for long-term care (LTC) demand. This study provides insights into older migrants' current and future use of LTC provisions under the Dutch long-term care act (LTCA). We distinguish three types of LTC and six groups of older migrants and analyze register data of all foreign-born older adults. Descriptive statistics for the 2016-2022 period and logistic regression analyses show considerable heterogeneity regarding the LTC-services used and the origin of care users. Most notably, Moroccan and Turkish older adults are least likely to use residential care and more likely to use personal care budgets. By combining our models' results with population projections, we project that older migrants' use of home-based care and personal budgets will increase rapidly in the next decade. Migrants with western and Surinamese origin will most often use LTC. Although the demand for residential care will rise less markedly, residential care will remain most used by older migrants under the LTCA. The rising demand for home-based care calls for policy efforts accommodating flexibility, room for differences, and grounds for establishing trustworthy relationships between all involved actors.","PeriodicalId":47121,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Aging & Social Policy","volume":" ","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142113363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The COVID pandemic, rising inflation, and increasing economic inequality have reduced the purchasing power of both wages and fixed incomes. Compared with prior cohorts, the current cohort of adults at or nearing retirement age faces higher levels of secured and unsecured debt burden from mortgages, home equity loans, student loans, credit cards, and out-of-pocket medical costs. Long-standing disparities in opportunities and generational wealth have resulted in more outstanding debt for Black older adults than their white counterparts. This \"financial fragility\" may result in older people foregoing proper nutrition, doctor's visits, needed medications, or home or car repairs, while stress about finances may contribute to chronic health and mental health conditions. Along with programs to educate and advise older adults on their pressing financial concerns, practitioners who interact with older people in many settings should incorporate needed financial assessment and referrals into their work with this population. Professional and continuing education should ensure financial literacy and awareness of financial fragility for those working with older adults.","PeriodicalId":47121,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Aging & Social Policy","volume":" ","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142082127","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Evidence about the factors that contribute to older adults' \"sense of home\" and their practical and policies implications are lacking. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 78 community-dwelling older adults to investigate which structural and organizational requirements and relational-affective environments could contribute to their experiencing a sense of home. Through inductive content analysis 119 subcategories were derived and grouped into eight main categories: being considered as a person; a safe, quiet, welcoming, and personalizable environment; meaningful relationships; optional and stimulating activities; active involvement in the organization within the facility; competent care personnel; preserving life memories; facility open and integrated with the community. Findings suggest that multiple factors might influence \"feeling at home,\" and many strategies can be adopted to facilitate older adults' successful adaptation. It is important that healthcare organizations consider these factors from a person-centered care perspective, and that care staff are trained in this type of care to enhance staff decision-making and older adults' wellbeing.","PeriodicalId":47121,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Aging & Social Policy","volume":" ","pages":"1-22"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142082129","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is the first known study to use nationally representative data (2006-2018) from the National Health Interview Survey merged with Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) administrative data to describe the health of older HUD renters (N = 4,582) living in public housing, multifamily housing, or receiving an HCV. Logistic regression models were used to examine potential health differences by HUD program type. Contrary to expectations, the results suggest that older HCV holders were more likely to experience health challenges compared to older adults with project-based assistance. The results bring awareness to the health challenges experienced by older HCV holders and emphasize the need for future research to examine why older HCV holders are more likely to experience these health challenges. Policy makers and program administrators must consider how the HCV program has significantly aged in the past two decades and consider what program and policy changes are necessary to ensure that older adults have access to affordable housing that matches their changing needs and preferences.","PeriodicalId":47121,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Aging & Social Policy","volume":" ","pages":"1-16"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142082128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
