Abstract
Purpose: This study investigates the effectiveness of providing healthcare management services for older adults at one primary healthcare post in a medically vulnerable rural area. Methods: The average ages of older adults who could walk to the community center was 79.6 years old (34 participants) and of those who had significant mobility constraints was 86.7 years old (10 participants). Approximately 77% of the participants were in the pre-frailty stage or higher, and 100% of those who received home visits were frail. Results: The p-value for TUG speed after the provision of healthcare services was 4.18229 × 10-6 <.005, and the p-value for systolic blood pressure was .008, which indicated a significant effect with p-value <.05. In the survey, respondents reported high satisfaction, improved flexibility and subjective health status, and a decrease in pain and the frequency of painkiller use. Conclusion: It can be concluded that it is effective in preventing frailty, managing systolic blood pressure, improving satisfaction among elderly beneficiaries, enhancing physical flexibility, and managing chronic diseases.
