Neighbors Connected is a community-based intervention in the Netherlands. It helps the active older people to organize social activities for their less active older neighbors, facilitated by practical and financial support from the Community Health Service. The intervention is the outcome of a combination of semi-structured interviews with the older people, with organizations for older people and with local policy-makers, epidemiological data and interactive discussions, all of which support the notion that engaging in social activities is a way to enhance healthy ageing within the community. The use of different sources of evidence resulted in a comprehensive picture and actionable local knowledge.
邻里互联是荷兰的一项社区干预措施。它通过社区卫生服务提供实际和财政支持,帮助活跃的老年人为不太活跃的老年邻居组织社交活动。该干预措施是对老年人、老年人组织和当地政策制定者进行半结构化访谈、流行病学数据和互动讨论的结果,所有这些都支持这样一种观点,即参与社交活动是增强社区内健康老龄化的一种方式。使用不同来源的证据得出了全面的图景和可操作的当地知识。
