Text

Background and Purpose: In 2030, one in three inhabitants of Hamburg will be older than 60 years. The collaborating project “ACTIVE AND HEALTHY NEIGHBORHOODS UHLENHORST AND RÜBENKAMP” (AGQua), funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and the Ministry of Health and Consumer Protection, addresses this challenge (Intervention details: http://www.agqua.de).

Methods: Process and summative evaluation is conducted by using a triangulation method of qualitative and quantitative data based on two time points. Additionally systematic counselling of collaborating partners is conducted also at two time points.

Research Focus: Social perceptions are assessed through content analysis by means of ten qualitative semi-structured interviews with inhabitants of the neighbourhoods. Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), Social Participation and intervention is measured (n= 428 inhabitants, years ≥60). Results were stratified by age, gender, neighbourhood and are currently being appraised bivariate and multivariate.

Methodological and Theoretical Focus: Content analysis based on Mayring (2010). HRQoL was assessed by Short Form Health Survey (SF12). Social Participation was measured by Index for Measuring Participation Restrictions (IMET).

Results: The Interviews show that Interventions in the neighbourhoods should address the residents’ needs and not their age. Attitude to technology is generally positive. Equality of technical and social components and removal of barriers is desired. Survey: HRQoL and Social Participation of respondents (MW age 73.3 ± 8.0, 54.7% female, 45.3% male) decrease with increasing age, however is higher than in the German standard sample. Final results will be presented at the conference.

Conclusion: Seemingly this method mix is suitable for process evaluation.
