In Sweden, sheltered housing is a housing model that provides accessible apartments with elevated social possibilities for older people. The environment within sheltered housing is expected to support resident health and reduce the need for care services. A previous study has shown that with increasing levels of depressive mood and decreasing levels of self-rated health and functional status, those residing in sheltered housing report higher levels of thriving compared to those ageing in place. Therefore, the aim of this study was to illuminate aspects of sheltered housing that are facilitators and/or barriers to thriving. Seven semi-structured group interviews in five different sheltered housing accommodations in Sweden were conducted between April 2019 and January 2020 (N = 38). The results, analysed using qualitative content analysis and presented in a model developed by Grol and Wensing, illuminate the four main categories of facilitators and barriers to thriving: individual factors, social context, environmental factors and organisational context. The results of this study show that the factors that influence experiences of thriving in sheltered housing are multifaceted and interconnected. Although the supportive environment provided in sheltered housing seems to contribute to thriving, the limited consideration towards the shifting health of residents is a barrier to thriving. The results of this study may assist in implementing tailored interventions to help support thriving on various levels.

在瑞典，庇护所是一种住房模式，它为老年人提供具有更高社交可能性的无障碍公寓。庇护所内的环境有望支持居民健康并减少对护理服务的需求。之前的一项研究表明，随着抑郁情绪水平的升高和自评健康和功能状态水平的降低，居住在庇护所中的人报告说，与就地老化的人相比，他们的生活水平更高。因此，本研究的目的是阐明庇护住房的各个方面，这些方面是促进和/或阻碍繁荣的因素。2019 年 4 月至 2020 年 1 月期间，在瑞典五个不同的庇护所进行了七次半结构化小组访谈（N = 38）。结果，使用定性内容分析进行分析并在 Grol 和 Wensing 开发的模型中呈现，阐明促进者和障碍的四个主要类别：个人因素、社会背景、环境因素和组织背景。这项研究的结果表明，影响庇护所繁荣体验的因素是多方面且相互关联的。尽管庇护所提供的支持性环境似乎有助于繁荣，但对居民不断变化的健康状况的有限考虑是繁荣的障碍。这项研究的结果可能有助于实施量身定制的干预措施，以帮助支持各个层面的繁荣。个体因素、社会背景、环境因素和组织背景。这项研究的结果表明，影响庇护所繁荣体验的因素是多方面且相互关联的。尽管庇护所提供的支持性环境似乎有助于繁荣，但对居民不断变化的健康状况的有限考虑是繁荣的障碍。这项研究的结果可能有助于实施量身定制的干预措施，以帮助支持各个层面的繁荣。个体因素、社会背景、环境因素和组织背景。这项研究的结果表明，影响庇护所繁荣体验的因素是多方面且相互关联的。尽管庇护所提供的支持性环境似乎有助于繁荣，但对居民不断变化的健康状况的有限考虑是繁荣的障碍。这项研究的结果可能有助于实施量身定制的干预措施，以帮助支持各个层面的繁荣。对居民不断变化的健康状况的有限考虑是繁荣的障碍。这项研究的结果可能有助于实施量身定制的干预措施，以帮助支持各个层面的繁荣。对居民不断变化的健康状况的有限考虑是繁荣的障碍。这项研究的结果可能有助于实施量身定制的干预措施，以帮助支持各个层面的繁荣。
