在正在进行的跨学科护理质量研究计划研究中，我们正在测试以功能为中心的护理的影响，这是一种护理方法，我们与辅助生活（AL）居民和工作人员一起工作，以优化居民在日常活动中的功能和身体活动。本文的目的是评估AL居民的生活满意度，重点关注体育活动的影响。在一份来自4个ALs的171名老年人的样本中，我们发现抑郁症、来自朋友和专家的社会支持、照顾时间和对摔倒的恐惧都与AL的生活满意度有显著的关系。在本研究中，体育活动与生活满意度无关。对于改变老年人对体育活动的态度和增加与体育活动相关的社会支持是否能提高生活满意度，有必要进行进一步的研究。（老年护理2010；31:197-205）
In the ongoing Interdisciplinary Nursing Quality Research Initiative Program study, we are testing the impact of Function-Focused Care, which is an approach to care in which we work with assisted living (AL) residents and staff to optimize the functional and physical activities of residents during daily activity. The purpose of this article is to evaluate life satisfaction of AL residents with a focus on the impact of physical activity. In a sample of 171 older adults from 4 ALs, it was found that depression, social support from friends and experts, time in caregiving, and fear of falling all had a significant relationship with life satisfaction in AL. Physical activity was not related to life satisfaction in this study. Ongoing research is necessary to explore whether changing attitudes about physical activity among older adults and increasing social support related to physical activity can improve life satisfaction.
