Profiles of Loneliness and Social Isolation in Physically Active and Inactive Older Adults in Rural England
Objective: Loneliness and social isolation are associated with higher risk of morbidity and mortality and physical inactivity in older age. This study explored the socioecological context in which both physically active and inactive older adults experience loneliness and/or social isolation in a UK rural setting. Design: A mixed-methods design employed semi structured interviews and accelerometer-measured moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (M…
Predictors of loneliness and different types of social isolation of rural-living older adults in the United Kingdom
Loneliness and social isolation are recognised, conceptually distinct threats to health and wellbeing in older age but limited evidence is available on their predictors in rural populations. This study performed logistical regression modelling to explore the predictors of loneliness, isolation from one's family and isolation from one's community in 884 British rural-living older adults (57.9% female; mean age = 71.5, standard deviation = 8.1 year…
Distance from practice moderates the relationship between patient management involving nurse telephone triage consulting and patient satisfaction with care
The ESTEEM trial was a randomised-controlled trial of telephone triage consultations in general practice. We conducted exploratory analyses on data from 9154 patients from 42 UK general practices who returned a questionnaire containing self-reported ratings of satisfaction with care following a request for a same-day consultation. Mode of care was identified through case notes review. There were seven main types: a GP face-to-face consultation, G…

The impact of social isolation on the health status and health-related quality of life of older people
Exploring the relationships between provision of welfare benefits advice and the health of elderly people
Provision of welfare benefits advice to maximise financial benefit uptake is a shared goal for social and health policy in the UK. The study was designed to explore the wider impact on elderly people provided with specialist welfare benefits advice, in terms of their health and quality of life. This paper reports on a longitudinal postal survey of community dwellers aged 60 and over referred for specialist welfare benefits advice within social se…

Patient-reported use of health service resources compared with information from health providers
The objectives of the present study were to examine the accuracy of older people's reports of health services resource use after discharge from acute care compared with information from healthcare providers. Paired data were obtained from health providers and a consecutive sample of hospitalised patients (aged 60 years or over) enrolled in a randomised controlled trial of hospital-at-home versus usual acute care. Retrospective reports of the use …
Effect of varying the time frame for Coop-Wonca functional health status charts
STUDY OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether changing the stated time frame for COOP-WONCA charts has any effect on responses. Specifically, to assess the effect of attempting to avoid the situation where the time frame crosses the onset of an acute episode. DESIGN: A randomised controlled trial of two time frames, nested within a main trial comparing early discharge with a hospital at home scheme against routine discharge policy. The time frames com…
