title: The effect of place characteristics on the quality of life of elderly living in Integrated Service Areas
ispublished: pub
full_text_status: public
abstract: The question within Western societies is no longer whether elderly people will live independently longer, but how the quality of life of elderly living independently will be maintained. Therefore, new and innovative interventions at the community level are needed, especially interventions that mix care, social support and housing measures. The Integrated Service Areas (ISAs) are an example of such an innovative way to support elderly. Prior literature has already given a clear depiction of the effects of the ISAs. However, these studies are snapshots of the effects of the ISAs. Until now, there has been no research that has monitored the effect of place characteristics on ISAs. This paper has therefore built upon the study of Pijpers et al. (2016) by investigating how place characteristics have influenced the ISAs of Hengelo and Peel en Maas and the elderly living in these areas over the past five years.
