摘要

摘要社区老年人项目是促进健康的重要资源；然而，参与的障碍是存在的，包括交通、成本、可及性和群体社交。为了解决这些障碍，实施了一项基于社区的老年人卫星计划。我们通过混合方法的项目评估，探讨了参与该项目的好处，以及参与的障碍和促进因素。该卫星吸引了来自当地社区和更远地区的有隔离风险的老年人和社交联系更紧密的人。研究结果表明，项目参与者重视在当地友好的环境中进行社交、锻炼和娱乐的结合，并获得了社会和健康益处。

Exploring Neighbourhood-based Programming for Older Adults: A Seniors’ Satellite

ABSTRACT Community-based programs for older adults are key health-promoting resources; however, barriers to participation exist, including transportation, cost, accessibility, and social in-groups. To address such barriers, a neighborhood-based Seniors’ Satellite program was implemented. We explored the benefits of participating in this program, and barriers and facilitators to participation, through a mixed methods program evaluation. The Satellite attracted older adults at risk of isolation and those more socially connected, from the local neighborhood and more distant areas. Findings suggest program participants valued the combination of social contact, exercise, and fun, in a local, friendly setting, and gained social and health benefits.

期刊介绍： Activities, Adaptation, & Aging is the working tool for activity directors and all health care professionals concerned with the enhancement of the lives of the aged. Established as the primary journal for activity professionals, Activities, Adaptation & Aging provides a professional outlet for research regarding the therapeutic implications of activities on quality-of-life issues and overall life satisfaction for the elderly. The journal examines a wide spectrum of activities: activity-based intervention for persons with dementia; activity determinants in independent-living elderly; activity implications in a variety of settings; activity participation patterns; and activity implications for everyday practice.
