在家养老的65岁以上老人正在增加。他们需要可用的健康信息来做出明智的决定,以保持健康和独立。这项研究与德克萨斯州塔兰特县的车轮上的饭菜公司合作,评估65岁以上居家人口使用国家医学图书馆网络在线健康信息的能力。只有1%的参与者利用了在线资源,只有8%的可用资源满足了他们的需求。建议包括利用社区外展扩展在线格式,将AHRQ的“健康素养普遍预防措施”应用于在线信息,或提高老年人的电子健康技能和获取途径。
The number of seniors over age 65 aging at home is increasing. They require usable health information to make informed decisions to maintain health and independence. This study partnered with Meals On Wheels, Inc., of Tarrant County, Texas, to assess the homebound over age 65 population’s ability to use of National Network of Libraries of Medicine online health information. Only 1% of participants utilized online resources and only 8% of available resources met their needs. Recommendations included using community outreach to extend online formatting, applying AHRQ’s “Health Literacy Universal Precautions,” to online information, or improving seniors’ eHealth skills and access.
