摘要
RESUMEEtant donne l'urgence de trouver des solutions innovantes et efficientes pour la prestation de services communautaires favorisant le << vieillir chez soi >>, il est necessaire d'identifier de nouvelles solutions mettant a profit les infrastructures existantes. Dans la presente etude sequentielle a methode mixte, nous avons explore le role que les centres d'hebergement pour personnes agees pourraient jouer dans l'offre de services destines a une population cible non traditionnelle, soit les aines avec pertes d'autonomie vivant dans la communaute. Quarante-deux (n=42) centres d'hebergement pour personnes agees du Nouveau-Brunswick ont complete un sondage en ligne et 10 de ces etablissements ont accepte d'accorder des entretiens. Les resultats montrent que 100 % des participants sont d'avis que les centres d'hebergement pourraient offrir des services aux personnes agees dans la communaute afin de favoriser le vieillir chez soi. Les resultats suggerent que les centres d'hebergement peuvent apporter des solutions efficientes et innovantes en ce sens. ABSTRACTGiven the urgency of finding cost-effective and innovative solutions to providing community services for aging in place, novel solutions that take advantage of existing infrastructure are clearly needed. In this sequential mixed-method study, we chose to explore the role that nursing homes could play in offering services to a non-traditional target population, namely seniors with loss of independence living in the community. Forty-two (n = 42) nursing homes in the province of New Brunswick completed an online survey, and 10 agreed to participate in face-to-face interviews. Results show that 100 per cent of participants agreed that nursing homes could offer services to seniors in their communities for aging in place. Results suggest that nursing homes are cost-effective, innovative solutions for aging in place.
