Increasing numbers of seniors in subsidized housing are aging in place and experience greater risk for chronic illness and disability due to advancing age and lower incomes, necessitating implementation of multifaceted programs for maintaining wellness. The opportunities and challenges of implementing multidisciplinary wellness programs at a subsidized senior housing facility (n=163) are presented. Assessments and healthy aging educational interventions were conducted with residents in their preferred language: Chinese, English, Farsi, Korean, and Russian. Needs assessment results led to developing the following interventions: blood pressure monitoring (Nursing), recreational activities (Recreation Therapy), home safety and strategies for better sleep workshops (Occupational Therapy), Matter of Balance classes (Kinesiology), and nutrition education (Nutrition). The SF-36v2® Health Survey was administered to residents to evaluate its utility as a standardized assessment tool for the facility (Social Work). Sixteen graduate/undergraduate students, supervised by faculty, delivered the programs in addition to 15-20 interpreters/translators; 118 senior residents (72%) participated in one or more programs. Impact and lessons learned: 1) Opportunities for providing diverse activities to maintain resident wellness; 2) Students learned culturally-sensitive practice skills when interacting with older adults in subsidized housing; became aware of different interventions provided by various professions. Challenges included: scheduling of events to address resident needs/preferences and student availability; finding translators/ interpreters and having enough time to have materials translated; multiple IRB applications; project coordination; advertising programs; encouraging and reminding residents to attend programs. Strategies for next steps in the evolution of this partnership based on a collaborative examination of data will be presented.
