Can Civil Organisations Support Manchester's Older Adults to Remain Healthy, and Dwell in their Communities Despite Chronic Health Conditions?

这项研究的目的是通过混合方法分析权力下放对社区内患有慢性病的老年人生活的影响。我将遵循一个解释主义的认识论框架，研究将分为三个阶段(如下)。这项研究将在曼彻斯特不断变化的医疗和社会保健格局中回答以下问题。曼彻斯特的权力下放对老年人在社区中患有慢性病的生活体验有什么影响？卫生和社会护理专业人员如何装备老年人，并参与社区资产和倡议，以寻求减少社会孤立，增进福祉，并使人们能够留在原地？目前的政策在使患有慢性病的老年人能够独立地在他们的社区很好地老龄化方面有多有效？

The aim of this study is to analyse the impact of devolution on older adults' living with chronic conditions within their community through a mixed methodological approach. I will follow an epistemological framework of interpretivism and the study will be in three stages (as below). The research will answer the following questions within a changing health and social care landscape in Manchester. What is the impact of Devolution Manchester on older adults' experiences of living with chronic conditions in their community? How equipped are health and social care professionals to signpost older adults to, and engage with community assets and initiatives that seek to reduce social isolation, promote wellbeing and enable people to remain in place? How effective are current policies in enabling older adults living with chronic conditions to age well in their communities independently?
