Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Public Health
  • Community Interventions

Background:

  • Social prescribing is underdeveloped in South Korea, despite the urgent need for interventions for an aging population.
  • Social isolation and reduced well-being are significant concerns for community-dwelling older adults.
  • Effective programs are needed to support the growing super-aged society in South Korea.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of an Active Community-Based Social Participation (ACoSP) program.
  • To assess the ACoSP program's impact on social isolation and well-being in older adults.
  • To explore the feasibility and participant satisfaction with community-based social participation interventions.

Main Methods:

  • A pilot study involving eight older adults in Wonju, South Korea, over one month.
  • Ten intervention sessions utilizing community asset mapping and a structured participation framework (cultural, physical, social activities).
  • Outcome measures included social isolation, lifestyle, self-efficacy, and participant satisfaction, analyzed using Wilcoxon signed-rank tests.

Main Results:

  • Participants showed increased physical activity and social participation, though not statistically significant.
  • Qualitative data indicated improved self-efficacy, community engagement, and social networks.
  • High participant satisfaction and perceived need for the ACoSP program were reported.

Conclusions:

  • The ACoSP program demonstrates potential for mitigating social isolation and enhancing well-being in older South Korean adults.
  • Further research with larger sample sizes and longer durations is recommended to validate findings.
  • The program's integration into community healthcare frameworks warrants further investigation.
