Popis: Supporting prevention behavior among older adults can be challenging because of conflicting media messages and the treatment focus of primary care. State aging services infrastructure can provide an innovative platform for supporting prevention and reaching large numbers of older adults. The University of Pittsburgh CDC Prevention Research Center partnered with the Pennsylvania APPRISE program to deliver the “10 Keys” to Healthy AgingTM. APPRISE is a Medicare counseling program offered at senior centers; the “10 Keys” is a series of behavior activation workshops for adults aged 50+ that cover USPSTF and evidence-based recommendations for health promotion.
