OBJECTIVE
We examined the feasibility of Aging Well by Design, a Lifestyle Redesign-inspired intervention for community-dwelling older adults. The original Lifestyle Redesign program was shortened to 3 mo and implemented as a community outreach program of a major health care system.
METHOD
Community-dwelling older adults participated in the 12-wk program, which emphasized an occupational approach to healthy aging. Outcomes evaluated were recruitment, attendance, resource use, participant satisfaction, and subjective benefit to participants.
RESULTS
The 13 participants, ages 66-88 yr, attended an average of 10 of 12 sessions. The intervention was completed as planned, physical resources were suitable, and financial resources were adequate. Participants expressed satisfaction with the program's facilitator, group discussions, and materials. Perceived benefits were social relationships, awareness of community resources, and change in attitude toward aging.
CONCLUSION
Implementation of a 3-mo Lifestyle Redesign-inspired program within a health care system was feasible.
目的
我们考察了“设计促健康老龄化”（Aging Well by Design）的可行性，这是一项受生活方式重塑启发、针对社区居住老年人的干预措施。最初的生活方式重塑计划缩短至3个月，并作为一个大型医疗保健系统的社区外展项目实施。
方法
社区居住老年人参与了为期12周的项目，该项目强调采用职业方法实现健康老龄化。评估的结果包括招募情况、出勤情况、资源使用、参与者满意度以及参与者的主观受益情况。
结果
13名年龄在66 - 88岁的参与者平均参加了12节课程中的10节。干预按计划完成，物质资源合适，资金资源充足。参与者对项目的促进者、小组讨论和材料表示满意。感知到的益处包括社会关系、对社区资源的了解以及对老龄化态度的改变。
结论
在医疗保健系统内实施为期3个月的受生活方式重塑启发的项目是可行的。
