SUSTAINWELL addresses the long-term socio-economic impact of population ageing on European society.
SUSTAINWELL aims will be to identify:
Gesundheitspolitik/Gesundheitssystem
Cognitive Health In Aging Society - The role of context for cognitive functioning and related policy implications in Europe
Inhalt und Zielsetzung
Das interdisziplinäre Projekt CHIAS “Cognitive Health In Aging Society” (Die kognitive Gesundheit einer alternden Gesellschaft) trägt zu neuen Erkenntnissen auf dem Gebiet des gesunden geistigen Alterns bei.
Aging Health Capital
This project aims at investigating the development of old-age health capital from an international perspective. It will identify life course factors associated with cognitive and physical performance and the prevalence of noncommunicable diseases of the 50+ population in Europe, the United States, and Asia using several comparable national panel surveys on health and aging. The factors are characteristics on the individual, regional/neighborhood, and country level and are collected at different points during the life course.
A new framework for integrating health services delivery and long-term care
BACKGROUND
The evolution of the scholarly debate on ‘integrated care’ and related initiatives to overcome fragmentation of service delivery has taken various directions and advances over the past two decades. On the one hand, care integration describes efforts focused on better coordination and linkage of services and specializations within the health system, e.g. disease management and related guidelines.
Bedürfnisse älterer Menschen in der Gesundheitsversorgung
Im Projekt soll eine Datengrundlage zur Verbesserung der Informationen über die Erwartungen, Wünsche, Bedürfnisse bzw. die gewünschten Rahmenbedingungen älterer Personen in der Gesundheitsversorgung schaffen. Im urbanen (Wien) und ruralen (Waldviertel) Raum werden dazu insgesamt 28 episodische Interviews mit Personen, die 65 Jahre oder älter sind und noch zu Hause leben, durchgeführt.
SUSTAIN - Sustainable Tailored Integrated Care For Older People In Europe
SUSTAIN aims to concretely improve the way care services for older adults are organised and delivered across Europe, and especially for those who have multiple health and social care needs. This page will provide more information about the background and activities of SUSTAIN.
The project started from our observation that in all European countries, care for older people is often poorly coordinated. This prevents care from adequately meeting the needs of older adults, and it shows that quality of care and outcomes could be much improved.
