“…Moreover, they regularly visit the people and are able to assess any changes in health status, attitude, mobility, cognitive function or behaviour. Redesigning the delivery of care in old age populations needs to include an integrated in-home programme of care, particularly for the low-income frail old age people (17). This study shows that social workers can participate in this approach.…”

COVID-19 has put a spotlight on the senior living sector. Transformational change is needed to address the challenges of an institutional model of long-term care. This article makes recommendations applying the Systems Transformation domain of the LEADS leadership capabilities framework to change the way older persons experience the ageing journey by creating a small home model of living. A literature review reinforces the spotlight on the capital investment needed to reinvent the nursing home into a centre for living.

“…Reforming eldercare delivery to meet the multiple needs of an increasing number of frail population is a top policy agenda in many countries around the world [ 1 ].

Background While community-based eldercare has proven to be effective in qualitative studies, there is limited evidence on the effectiveness of this geriatric care model in rural communities where caring for older people is traditionally the responsibility of family members, but a formal long-term care was recently introduced in China. CIE is a rural community-embedded intervention using multidisciplinary team, to provide evidenced-based integrated care services for frail older people including social care services and allied primary healthcare and community-based rehabilitation services. Methods CIE is a prospective stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial conducted at 5 community eldercare centers in rural China. The multifaceted CIE intervention, guided by chronic care model and integrated care model, consists of five components: comprehensive geriatric assessment, individualized care planning, community-based rehabilitation, interdisciplinary case management, and care coordination. The intervention is rolled out in a staggered manner in these clusters of centers at an interval of 1 month. The primary outcomes include functional status, quality of life, and social support. Process evaluation will also be conducted. Generalized linear mixed model is employed for binary outcomes. Discussion This study is expected to provide important new evidence on clinical effectiveness and implementation process of an integrated care model for frail older people. The CIE model is also unique as the first registered trial implementing a community-based eldercare model using multidisciplinary team to promote individualized social care services integrated with primary healthcare and community-based rehabilitation services for frail older people in rural China, where formal long-term care was recently introduced.
