Pilot Project on Enhancing Support for Hidden Elderly in the Three-nil Buildings and Old Tenement Buildings: Capacity Building & Impact Evaluation
The aims of this interventional study are of two-fold. First, the study aims to develop the capacity to facilitate the collaborating NGOs to address the social determinants of aging well for 3-N seniors. The second aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of the transitional support for 3-N elders. The main question is aims to answer is:
Does the transitional support facilitate a better physical and psychological wellbeing in 3-N seniors.
Participants will be categorized into transitional-support group or non-transitional-support group based on their existing community service. They will join evaluation at four timepoints (baseline 3-, 6-, and 12-month) over the 1-year follow-up period.
