A strengths-based model for evidencing the impact of second wave prevention programs in social care
In response, this article utilizes a series of research projects into second-wave prevention to develop a four-stage model which explains the difference strengths-based prevention makes and enables the evidencing of their outcomes and impacts. Findings: Through capturing the unique characteristics of strengths-based approaches, the model creates a framework for analysis and evaluation. It moves away from deficits-based, linear approaches toward r…
Evaluation of the Falls Management Exercise (FaME) programme implemented across three United Kingdom regions
The Falls Management Exercise (FaME) programme, delivered over 24 weeks, reduces falls in randomised controlled trials and ‘real world’ delivery, but some services deliver shorter, adapted FaME programmes. We investigated the ‘real-world’ effectiveness of FaME delivered for 12 or 24 weeks across three UK regions. Design: prospective cohort study. Participants: 1,601 FaME programme attendees (median age 79.5 years), of whom 873 had follow-up data …
Transforming adult social care systems? A systematic review of the costs and outcomes of local area coordination in England and Wales
How does arthritis affect employment? Longitudinal evidence on 18,000 British adults with arthritis compared to matched controls
Policy interventions to support people with arthritis who wish to remain in work might be designed with people in routine work in mind, and targeted at those working in smaller private firms. More research on the cost-effectiveness of those interventions is needed
Social care costs for community‐dwelling older people living with frailty
International evidence indicates that older people with frailty are more likely to access social care services, compared to nonfrail older people. There is, however, no robust evidence on costs of social care provided for community-dwelling older people living with frailty in their own homes. The main objective of this study was to examine the relationship between community-dwelling older people living with frailty, defined using the cumulative d…
Healthcare utilisation and physical activities for older adults with comorbidities in the UK during Covid‐19
A major concern with COVID-19 was the impact it would have on individual health, the routine use of healthcare services, and physical activities, especially for older adults with comorbidities. To address this, we studied the association between these variables for older adults during the pandemic. To explore what policy instruments might be effective in mitigating the negative impacts, we investigated the effects of a shielding notice for those …

The monetary value of diets consumed by British adults
Objective To describe the diet costs of adults in the National Diet and Nutrition Study (NDNS) and explore patterns in costs according to sociodemographic indicators. Design Cross-sectional diet diary information was matched to a database of food prices to assign a cost to each food or non-alcoholic beverage consumed. Daily diet costs were calculated, as well as costs per 10 MJ to improve comparability across differing energy requirements. Costs …
Using occupational history calendars to capture lengthy and complex working lives
Accurately documenting the occupational biographies of older people can be challenging given their lengthy duration and the complexity of contemporary employment. This paper shows how a traditionally quantitative occupational history calendar (OHC) instrument can be adapted for use in a mixed methods research design, to gather in-depth information about long working lives. The OHCs were embedded within semi-structured interviews and recorded life…
What is the cost of a healthy diet? Using diet data from the UK Women's Cohort Study
BACKGROUND: A healthy diet is important to promote health and well-being while preventing chronic disease. However, the monetary cost of consuming such a diet can be a perceived barrier. This study will investigate the cost of consuming a range of dietary patterns. METHODS: A cross-sectional analysis, where cost of diet was assigned to dietary intakes recorded using a Food Frequency Questionnaire. A mean daily diet cost was calculated for seven d…
Who will care? Employment participation and willingness to supply informal care
Giving older workers a voice
This article contributes to the literature on older workers and employment, providing a regional perspective on the relationship between age and work. The study is based on interviews in conjunction with occupational-event calendars with 56 individuals in North West England. The primary aim was to gain in-depth understanding of perceived constraints that older people feel hinder their employment prospects within the context of their daily lives. …
Work – life imbalance
In the United Kingdom, informal carers look after relatives or friends who need extra support because of age, physical or learning disability, or illness. The burden of informal care work falls on women, who often care for longer hours and durations than men. This paper considers the impact that caring responsibilities have on women's employment. The research is based on a dedicated questionnaire and in-depth interviews with informal caregivers. …
Social Drinking and Laughter
Pairs of observers monitored drinking and laughter in groups of social drinkers (N = 56). A significant correlation of .27 was found between units of alcohol consumed and laughter scores
