Tremendous growth is projected for the elderly population in the coming decades with regard to size and diversity. This research examined the perspectives of low income well individuals age 60 and older living in congregate subsidized urban housing. It explored how they perceive their communities, their health care practices, and their health and well-being. This inquiry utilized qualitative phenomenological methods, specifically face-to-face indepth interviews. The qualitative approach was supplemented by quantitative data in the form of standardized health-related quality of life measurement. An evaluation component also investigated the reasons residents used or did not use an on-site nursing service.

Tremendous growth is projected for the elderly population in the coming decades with regard to size and diversity. This research examined the perspectives of low income well individuals age 60 and older living in congregate subsidized urban housing. It explored how they perceive their communities, their health care practices, and their health and well-being. This inquiry utilized qualitative phenomenological methods, specifically face-to-face indepth interviews. The qualitative approach was supplemented by quantitative data in the form of standardized health-related quality of life measurement. An evaluation component also investigated the reasons residents used or did not use an on-site nursing service.

The study noted several noteworthy findings, but the need for social interaction permeated all domains. The participants demonstrated an adherence to regular schedules. More than half felt positive about living in their settings and more than a quarter felt neutral about their living situation. More than four-fifths of participants felt that they were in good health or had minor problems. The majority had usual sources of medical care and visited their physicians regularly. None experienced any difficulty in getting the care they needed. As a group, the participants scored lower on health-related quality of life than national norms in the physical domain and about equal in the mental domain. The on-site nursing service was not effective with this population. Recommendations included conducting a comprehensive needs assessment with the actual service users, i.e., the residents, before instituting any service. Such services may include a variety of models, e.g., nursing, social, system navigation.

The public health significance of this inquiry is grounded in public health's more holistic view of health---physical, emotional, social, and community domains---than that of traditional medicine. It is the more inclusive view that will inform the development and institution of housing and health services that are more responsive to the needs of the population, incorporating a variety of services that should better address the needs of an increasingly diverse older population and help to achieve the goals of Healthy People 2010, the first of which charges is "Increase quality and years of healthy life."
