Policy, Social Justice, Environment, Individual Behavior
“Health promotion interventions take place in a complex environment that includes family and social relationships, economic and geographic factors, and physical barriers and opportunities, all of which influence older persons’ ability to process health information and translate it into new behavior.”
NRC 2004, p.115
![Page 15: Center for Health Policy and Ethics, Creighton University Medical Center, 2500 California Plaza, Omaha, NE 68178 johnstone@creighton.edujohnstone@creighton.edu,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649d9c5503460f94a8502a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Aging & Well-being
“There is increasing evidence that well-being in advanced age is as much if not more a function of social connection and respect then of access to medical technology.”
Powers & Faden 2006, pp. 164-5
