Abstract

Assisted living Home care Nursing homes Older adults Outdoor activities
•Older long-term services and supports recipients had lower ratings of satisfaction with outdoor activities over time.•Satisfaction with outdoor activities increased over time for participants living facilities.•Those living in nursing homes had a faster rate of increase in satisfaction with outdoor activities over time. To identify predictors of change in older adults’ satisfaction with outdoor activities ratings over the first two years of enrollment in long-term services and supports (LTSS). Self-rated satisfaction with outdoor activities (not at all satisfied to extremely satisfied) was the primary outcome of this secondary data analysis. Mixed-effects linear regression modeling with a backward elimination process was used for analyses. In the final model (N = 453) older LTSS recipients at baseline had lower ratings of satisfaction with outdoor activities over time, whereas younger recipients had higher ratings over time. Those who moved into a residential facility at baseline had an increase in outdoor activity satisfaction ratings over time compared to older adults who received home and community-based services that had a decrease. LTSS clinicians can use these findings to support older adults with decision-making around enrollment into LTSS, address preferences, and develop person-centered care interventions for outdoor activity.
