Описание: Taking a unique look at health promotion and aging in Canada, this edited collection uses the action framework in the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion to explore the factors and issues related to the health of older adults. The book is organized around the five action areas for health promotion: building healthy public policy, creating supportive environments, strengthening community action, developing personal skills, and reorienting health and social services.Adhering to the holistic approach that health in older age involves physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual well-being, this comprehensive collection covers a wide range of interventions that are designed to benefit and protect the aging population's health, quality of life, rights, and dignity, while building intergenerational solidarity and collaboration. Readers will learn about aging from a health promotion perspective; the context, environment, and issues related to older adults in Canada; as well as best practices in health promotion, public health, and the care of older adults. Promoting the Health of Older Adults is an invaluable resource for both graduate and undergraduate students in gerontology, health promotion, nursing, social work, and related fields.FEATURES:Considers the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic for health promotion and agingProvides an up-to-date profile of older adults in Canada and current/future trends in aging and health, including the use of new technologies and policies and practices in health promotion, public health, and other disciplinesIncludes a wealth of pedagogical features, such as learning objectives, critical thinking questions, a glossary, and online supplementary materials

Описание: There are several unique features of this book on the spiritual well-being of Chinese older adults. Conceptually, such effort is important because there is a general lack of well-articulated models of spiritual well-being for Chinese people. Third, a Spiritual Enhancement Group for Chinese Elders was developed and its effectiveness was evaluated.
Описание: This book studies the many different ways in which the lives of the first, third, and fourth generations intersect and the reciprocal benefits that can accrue from establishing positive intergenerational bonds. The unifying feature across the chapters is that the authors view these relationships as a powerful influence on Quality of Life (QoL). The book takes the stance that older adults figure prominently in the QoL of young children, with the latter group defined here as ranging in age from infancy up to and including eight years of age. It examines how bonds with older adults can affect young children’s functioning across developmental domains—physical, emotional, social, and cognitive. It addresses questions of importance to those who have a commitment to the very young such as: “What benefits can young children derive from positive bonds with older adults?”, “How do young children understand the aging process and develop respect for the elderly?”, “How can published research be used to guide both informal and formal interactions between the older generation and the newest one?” and, finally, “How can various stakeholders such as professionals, families, organizations, and communities collaborate to enrich and enlarge the kind and amount of support that older adults provide to the very young child?”
Описание: Includes literature reviews and empirical analyses on a range of topics, including physical and mental health status, psychosocial factors and health, biomarkers, cognitive health, social networks and relationships, social isolation and loneliness, marriage and romantic relationships, discrimination, and cancer caregiving within the family context.
