Abstract
  • The purpose of this scholarly report is to examine how the implementation of health management programming among community-dwelling aging adults inspired by Lifestyle Redesign can create higher levels of self-efficacy to successfully manage chronic health conditions to remain aging in place. Four thirty to sixty-minute health management workshops were implemented over the course of four weeks. The topics for these workshops included: arthritis management, energy conservation, physical activity, and nutrition. To measure the increase in knowledge and confidence a pre- and post-test were delivered during each workshop. Data from the pre and post-test provided that the implementation of health management education increased the knowledge and confidence about health management topics and how they impact the participant's everyday routines. The findings from this research provide further support for continued occupational therapy practitioners in the role of health management among community-dwelling aging adults. Keywords: Lifestyle Redesign, Health Management, Community-Dwelling Aging Adults, Chronic Health Conditions
