Following my previous post, if I want to further compare the mean age of older adults living in the community, subvented RCHEs, and non-subvented RCHEs, I wonder whether an independent t-test is still appropriate?

Hello. There are subvented and non-subvented residential care homes for older adults (RCHE) in Hong Kong. What analysis method could we use when comparing the mean age of those who live in the two kinds of RCHEs?

May I ask a question about older adults’ blood pressure information? In a nursing home, does this information belong to privacy or public, if it is collected for program evaluation?

Hello. I am doing some literature review on telemedicine. I found that the existing results from a one-year study indicated a reduction of hospital emergency departments for older patients. Can we say that telemedicine is feasible for geriatric care?

Hi! Our nursing home is considering using telemedicine for older clients. And learned from the MEL project, we hope to design a program evaluation to examine its effectiveness!

Hello. I am puzzling about a question. Take services for older adults as an example. Suppose a new intervention has been applied to five older adults, shall I use the five older adults or only one of them as a case?

In our program evaluation, we have interviewed several older persons and asked their views opinions towards our mental health program. Is it proper for us to adopt a quantitative questionnaire to supplement with interviews?

Hi, friend! Our team wants to describe a mental health program for older adults in-depth in evaluation. Can we use case studies as the evaluation design?

Many thanks for your previous suggestion! May I ask for more information about the time-series design for an older adults’ memory-monitoring program? Is it a descriptive design or a causal design?
