Nursing Interventions to Improve Healthcare for Older Adults

Dear Colleagues,

This Nursing Reports Special Issue will focus on nursing interventions to improve healthcare for older adults. Systematic/scoping/narrative reviews or protocols of reviews related to these interventions are welcome. One of the primary aims is to identify effective nursing strategies that enhance the quality of life and healthcare outcomes for older adults. These interventions are aimed at promoting patient satisfaction, addressing the unique needs of older adults, and improving adherence to treatment through effective nurse–patient communication.

Nursing interventions in various settings have shown positive results in enhancing the care and well-being of older adults. Understanding and implementing these strategies can significantly improve the quality of care and patient satisfaction. This Special Issue aims to showcase studies that highlight the importance of tailored nursing interventions for older adults, demonstrating their impact on health outcomes and overall quality of life.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Investigation based on practice and personalized care approaches in older-adult healthcare;
• Nursing interventions to manage chronic diseases or conditions requiring long-term care in older adults;
• Studies promoting improved care for older adults;
• Nurse-led care initiatives;
• Innovative nursing interventions for the management of diseases in older adults;
• New approaches to personalized care for older adults;
• Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) in the context of older adult healthcare.
