摘要

背景与目的。在美国新冠肺炎大流行期间,地区老龄机构(AAA)成为老年人在社会隔离后维持健康生活的重要来源。为应对COVID-19疫情,它制定了不同的方案,例如为老年人提供送餐服务,以支持老年人的营养供应。本研究的目的是研究AAA在面对COVID-19变化时如何管理这些重要的营养计划。方法。我们整合了三个数据库,包括49周(2020年4月6日- 2021年3月14日)33个规划和服务区(PSA)膳食数据、来自加州老龄化部门的PSA关键特征以及来自加州公共卫生部的COVID-19病例。我们使用单变量分析和随机效应模型检验了用餐次数和服务人数与COVID-19病例和PSA特征之间的关系。结果。然而,我们观察到餐食数量与COVID-19病例数量之间存在正相关关系,而不是服务人数。我们发现农村老年人的数量与提供的餐食数量和提供的人数之间呈负相关。此外,非英语国家和少数民族在用餐数量上分别起到了积极和消极的作用。结论。这些结果表明,AAA应覆盖更广泛的人口,特别是在大流行期间志愿者短缺的农村地区,并敦促与高科技和第三方公司合作,以提高服务效率。©Pacini Editore S.p.A./AU-CNS。版权所有。

Examining the Area Agencies on Aging nutrition program in response to the COVID-19
Background & aims. During the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S., Area Agencies on Aging (AAA) became an essential source for older adults to maintain a healthy life after social isolation. It has developed different programs in response to the COVID-19 outbreak, such as home delivered meals to support older adults’ nutrition supply. The purpose of this study was to examine how well AAA has managed such important nutrition plans facing the COVID-19 changes. Methods. We integrated three databases, including 49 weeks (6 April 2020-14 March 2021) 33 Planning and Service Area (PSA) meal data, PSAs’ key characteristics from the California Department of Aging, and the COVID-19 cases from the California Department of Public Health. We examined the association between the number of meals and people served and the COVID-19 cases and PSA features, using the univariate analysis and the random effect model. Results. We observed a positive relationship between the number of meals served and the number of the COVID-19 cases, however, not the number of people served. We found a negative relationship between the number of rural older adults with both the number of meals served and people served. Additionally, non-English-speaking and minority played a positive and negative role respectively as to the number of meals served. Conclusions. These results indicated that the AAA should cover a wider population, especially in rural areas experiencing a shortage of volunteers in the pandemic, urging the collaboration with high-tech and third-party companies to improve delivery efficiency. © 2022, Pacini Editore S.p.A./AU-CNS.
