Long-term growth rates have indicated that the aging population calls for the need for senior-friendly accommodations for older adults that have grown older in various ways from their predecessors. This study explores the lived experiences of older adults with functional limitations living in senior living facilities and the impact on their social, physical, and psychosocial well-being. Through one-on-one, semi-structured, in-depth interviews, data was collected from 14 women and 14 men who have lived in a senior living facility in three urban locations, aged between 60 and 95. The study employed the Modified Stevick-Colaizzi-Keen analysis method guided by Moustakas’ transcendental phenomenology. This paper identified five main themes associated with older adults with functional limitations in senior living facilities: fear, loneliness, living with functional limitations, satisfaction with the living environment, and social connection. The findings provide valuable implications for academicians, policy-makers, healthcare facilitators, senior accommodations or operators, and government agencies.

长期增长率表明,人口老龄化需要为以各种方式比他们的前辈变老的老年人提供适合老年人的住宿。本研究探讨了生活在高级生活设施中的功能受限老年人的生活经历,以及对他们的社会、身体和社会心理健康的影响。通过一对一、半结构化、深入的访谈,从 14 名女性和 14 名男性中收集了数据,她们住在三个城市的高级生活设施中,年龄在 60 至 95 岁之间。该研究采用了改进的 Stevick -以Moustakas先验现象学为指导的Colaizzi-Keen分析方法。本文确定了与老年生活设施中功能受限的老年人相关的五个主要主题:恐惧、孤独、生活有功能限制、对生活环境的满意度和社会联系。这些发现为院士、政策制定者、医疗保健促进者、高级住宿或经营者以及政府机构提供了宝贵的启示。
