The COVID-19 pandemic's impact on older adults (55+) living at the mid-point of the shelter-care continuum, in seniors housing (SH) and assisted living (AL), remains largely unexplored. This study compares survey responses of SH and AL residents with those of age peers living in private conventional community-based dwellings (CD) in British Columbia, Canada. Despite more SH/AL residents reporting feelings of isolation and changes to social support access, the pandemic appears to have had a greater negative impact on the routines of CD older adults. AL residents were more likely to engage in advance care planning discussions before and since the COVID-19 outbreak. These data are important for improving response to current and future disasters across the shelter-care continuum, particularly in ways to reduce the psychosocial effects of isolation or routine disruption, and strategies to increase advance care planning engagement.

Abstract Background The European Assessment System (EASY) Care Standard is a self-report fall screening tool for the community-dwelling older adults. A study demonstrated that the EASY-Care Standard 2010’s fall subscale (ECSF) is a valid tool for predicting the risk of fall in a nursing home; however, the validity of ECSF in community-dwelling older adults is still not clear. We aimed to evaluate the performance of the instrument as a screening tool to predict the risk of fall among community-dwelling older adults in Iran for a six-month follow-up period. If this tool is useful for the prediction of fall, it can be used for primary health-care services to detect subjects at a higher risk of fall. Method This is a longitudinal validation study that was carried out among 101 community residents ≥60 in Tehran, Iran. The participants were selected using a convenience cluster sampling based on Performance-Oriented Mobility Assessment (POMA) score categorization. The follow-up period of this study was 6 months. The ECFS scores at the baseline of the study were compared between subjects who had fallen and those who had not fallen during the six-month follow-up period. The cutoff was determined using a Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curve analysis. Internal consistency and the sufficient intra-rater reliability were determined. Results The mean age of the participants was 71.87 years. The Spearman’s correlation coefficient between ECSF and POMA scores was equal to 0.829. There was also a correlation coefficient >0.8 between ECFS scores and Timed Up and Go test (TUG) seconds. Two components were detected in the factor analysis of the ECSF. The ECSF cutoff point was four out of eight with the sensitivity and specificity of 76.6 and 87.5%, respectively. The total Kuder-Richardson 20 (KR-20) coefficient was calculated as 0.852. Conclusion It seems that the EASY-Care Standard 2010 is a valid and reliable tool to predict the risk of fall in the next 6 months in the community-dwelling older adults.

摘要背景欧洲评估系统（EASY）护理标准是一种针对社区老年人的自我报告秋季筛查工具。一项研究表明，EASY Care Standard 2010的跌倒分量表（ECSF）是预测养老院跌倒风险的有效工具；然而，ECSF在居住在社区的老年人中的有效性仍然不清楚。我们旨在评估该仪器作为筛查工具的性能，以预测伊朗社区老年人在六个月的随访期内跌倒的风险。如果这一工具对跌倒的预测有用，那么它可以用于初级保健服务，以检测跌倒风险较高的受试者。方法这是一项纵向验证研究，在伊朗德黑兰101名≥60岁的社区居民中进行。参与者是使用基于面向绩效的移动性评估（POMA）评分分类的方便聚类抽样进行选择的。本研究的随访期为6 月。在六个月的随访期内，比较研究基线时跌倒和未跌倒的受试者的ECFS评分。使用受试者工作特性（ROC）曲线分析来确定截止值。确定了内部一致性和足够的评分者内部可靠性。结果参与者的平均年龄为71.87岁 年。ECSF和POMA评分之间的Spearman相关系数为0.829。ECFS分数与定时上下测试（TUG）秒数之间的相关系数也>0.8。在ECSF的因子分析中检测到两个成分。ECSF的截止点为八分之四，敏感性和特异性分别为76.6%和87.5%。Kuder Richardson 20（KR-20）的总系数计算为0.852。结论EASY Care Standard 2010似乎是预测未来6年跌倒风险的有效和可靠的工具 在社区居住的老年人中待了几个月。一个有效、简单、有用的工具可以很好地预测跌倒，这可能有助于初级卫生保健级别的卫生服务提供者轻松识别跌倒风险高的老年人。关于这个话题，我们已经知道了什么？（包括关键点和/或知识差距有几种预测老年人跌倒的工具。ESAY–Care已被翻译成多种语言。在伊朗，没有评估该工具有效性和可靠性的报告。本文补充道：（研究结果/关键新信息波斯版ESAY Care工具具有很高的评分者间可靠性和特异性。波斯版ESAY Care工具可以预测未来六个月的跌倒风险提供者和家庭照顾者的措施，特别是在初级预防层面。未来每个社区的老年人数量都可以预测。ESAY Care将提供一种有效的方法，在日常社区评估中识别有跌倒风险的老年人。

What is the impact of housing adequacy on recent home modification, controlling for demographics and housing characteristics? This study examined home modifications of households with a member aged 65 or older, focusing on relationships between selected demographic and housing variables and home modification. Binary logistic regression analysis was used on a sample of 6,627 homeowners from the newly released 2019 American Housing Survey (AHS) dataset. This analysis of the 2019 AHS data is important because of its pre-COVID pandemic era perspective in terms of home modifications and older adults aging in place. Results showed that recent housing modifications were significantly affected by select demographic and housing factors.
