Maintaining health in well older adults: initiatives for schools of nursing and The John A. Hartford Foundation for the 21st century.

In the past century, there has been a substantial increase in the number of older Americans and an increase in their life expectancy at birth. These trends will continue over the next century, marked by further increases in active life expectancy and marked changes in the racial and ethnic composition of the older population. While nursing has traditionally focused on the care of frail older individuals, most older adults--well older adults--enjoy a relatively high level of health and function. In this article, well older adults are defined as those with the physical, mental, social, and spiritual function or resources to meet the needs of everyday living. Recommendations for improving care of well older adults are provided, including reconceptualizing ways of thinking, expanding practice initiatives, building the science of nursing research in geriatrics and gerontology, developing education and training opportunities, and rethinking individual safety within the context of autonomy.

The Foundation. The occupational therapy library: a professional resource.

For the first time, much of the significant literature on occupational therapy has been gathered in one place so that clinicians, students, and scholars can use the collection for study, research, or browsing. The initial efforts have provided a rich resource on the history and evaluation of occupational therapy. Occupational therapy practitioners, educators, and researchers are encouraged to make use of library resources and to support the continued development of the library through donations of old and new materials. Interested persons may write or call the Occupational Therapy Library through the Association address or telephone number.
