Life Domains and Lifestyle of Older Adults Living in a Nursing Home: A Pilot Study.

ABSTRACT: Although the preventive occupational therapy intervention program Lifestyle Redesign^® has proven to be effective in maintaining and improving the health and quality of life of older adults, a similar program has not yet been culturally adapted to the Spanish population. As a preliminary step in developing a lifestyle intervention tailored to healthy Spanish older adults living in a nursing home (Lifestyle Choice; originally in Spanish "Elección de Estilo de Vida"), we aimed to identify and describe the life domains of this population and determine overlap with content areas addressed in the Lifestyle Redesign^® program. An observational cross-sectional study was carried out using quantitative methods, including 30 healthy older adult residents in the "Virgen del Prado"
