“…Community mobility is a key determinant of health and quality of life [13] that can be affected by a wide variety of factors ranging from personal, internal factors to external and global factors. Navigating safely in the community is crucial for social participation, physical and mental health [14] and is dependent on older adult's community mobility needs being fulfilled [15].…”

The health equity characteristics of research exploring the unmet community mobility needs of older adults: a scoping review

et al. 2022

Background Unmet community mobility needs of older adults, published since the announcement of the UN sustainable development goals was synthesised to describe the health equity characteristics of research identifying unmet community mobility needs of older adults. Methods Searches were conducted in March and April 2020, 2275 articles were screened and 100 identified for data extraction. Results Findings showed underrepresentation of articles considering rural settings [9%] and originating in the global South [14%]. Gender, disability, education, and transport / driving were identified as key health equity characteristics and only 10 articles provided detail on all four of these. External factors inhibiting community mobility included built environments, service availability, and societal attitudes. Internal factors included finances, fear and apprehension, and functional limitations. Conclusions The need for standardised reporting of participant characteristics in the community mobility of older adults was highlighted. These characteristics are required by research consumers to judge equity dimensions, and the extent to which findings represent minority or marginalised groups. 15 after the UN pledge to reduce inequalities, peer reviewed primary research does not reflect a global drive to end discrimination, exclusion and reduce the inequalities and vulnerabilities that leave people behind.

“…The connection between community mobility, going to out-of-home places and the health of older adults is well documented (Margot-Cattin et al 2019 ) and affected by multiple interrelated features (Franke et al 2020 ). Margot-Cattin et al ( 2021 ) found that older adults with dementia in Switzerland accessed significantly fewer places (M = 15.83) than those without dementia (M = 18.91). People with dementia were limited to visiting healthcare providers, their neighbourhood, visiting family and friends and going to restaurants or cafes.…”

Out-of-home life spaces valued by urban older adults with limited income

Background: Access to, and occupational performance in, out-of-home-life-spaces is linked to health, wellbeing and quality of life for older adults. There is little evidence of how this relates to older adults with limited resources in an African urban context.Objectives: To describe the out-of-home-life-spaces accessed and valued by older adults with limited resources, living in an urban South African setting.Method: An exploratory concurrent mixed methods study saw 84 rehabilitation clinicians conduct 393 face-to-face interviews with older adults. Clinicians produced reflective field notes and participated in focus groups. Quantitative data were analysed using descriptive statistics with SPSS Version X. Qualitative data were analysed through inductive content analysis.Results: Older adults walked, used mini-bus taxis or private vehicles to get to places of worship, medical facilities, shops, family and friends and special interest gatherings on a weekly or monthly frequency. Lack of funds was the main barrier. Older adults aspired to travel, go on holiday and to visit out-of-town family homes.Conclusion: Exploring the daily lived experience of older, urban South Africans with limited resources brought to light the value they attribute to participation in activities that contribute to the wellbeing of their families and communities. Such activities are found in a variety of life spaces.Contribution: Results could inform policy makers and service providers in their planning of community mobility, transportation services and health care, for older adults with limited resources.

“…For example, a systematic review exploring unmet long‐term needs reported that 74% of people after stroke perceive at least one or more unmet needs in their life (Chen, 2019). Moreover, people with disability due to dementia have reported decreased out‐of‐home participation and life space outside the home (Margot‐Cattin, 2021).…”

This is the protocol for a Campbell systematic review. The objectives are as follows:to assess the efficacy of interventions aiming to improve outdoor mobility for people with disability and to explore if the efficacy varies between different populations and different intervention components. | BACKGROUND | The problem, condition, or issueAround 15% of the global population, which accounts for around one billion people, live with some form of disability and the number is increasing (WHO, 2020). The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is an international conceptual framework used to describe and measure health and disability on both the individual and population level (ICF, 2001). Disability, according to the ICF terminology, is the term for any impairments, activity limitations or participation restrictions and includes all traumatic, congenital, and acquired conditions. The ICF is focusing on health and the consequences of disease, and is closely related to the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10), a framework that describes and classifies diseases, disorders, and other health conditions by diagnosis (ICD-10, 2004). The definition of disability used in the ICF includes many potential causes for disability and can include but is not limited to specific disease classifications.People living with a disability can experience worse health outcomes (WHO, 2004), experience less participation in the community as well as be part of fewer activities outside the home (Eurostat, 2015). For example, a systematic review exploring unmet long-term needs reported that 74% of people after stroke perceive at least one or more unmet needs in their life (Chen, 2019). Moreover, people with disability due to dementia have reported decreased outof-home participation and life space outside the home (Margot- Cattin, 2021).There are several international and national strategies and policies to guide initiatives to reduce the prevalence and impact of living with disability, for example, the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD, 2006) and the European Disability Strategy (EU, 2020). In addition, the EU priority areas for people living with disability lists essential areas and goals for further initiatives for people with disability. This includes accessibility to goods and services, participation in public life, activities and community services, and equality to combat discrimination and promote equal opportunities.Mobility outside the home, or outdoor mobility, is a prerequisite for participation, and includes any way of transportation and mobility in the outdoor environment. This can include using your own body for transportation as walking or using vehicles for transportation as cars, buses, train, tram, bicycles, or scooters (Mollenkopf, 2006). For people living with a disability, using different mobility devices such as a rollator or a manual/electric wheelchair can also facilitate outdoor mobility. Outdoor mo...
