Filter by:This project aims to evaluate the scalability of an established, evidence-based, multi-component intervention, Senior PharmAssist^TM (SPA), designed to improve function and quality of life of older adults with limited incomes. The investigators propose to refine existing SPA replication materials such as community readiness assessments, educational tools to facilitate implementation of care processes, and data collection tools for quality improvement with input from community stakeholders interested in implementation of the SPA intervention. After gathering feedback from key stakeholders in 3 diverse communities in North Carolina, and refining tools accordingly, SPA staff will then provide technical assistance to support implementation in these communities, using the Institute for Healthcare Improvement learning collaborative approach, to facilitate community agency staff implementation of the SPA core components with racially diverse older adults with limited incomes using small scale tests of change with feedback. The investigators will collect data from key stakeholders including older adults, community volunteers, and agency staff regarding facilitators and barriers to implementation of SPA, and obtain aggregate data regarding older adult participants served, including demographics, participant satisfaction, and self-rated health. Data will be analyzed using a multiple case study design that incorporates both qualitative data on barriers and facilitators, as well as aggregated data on older adults enrolled in community programs.
