Summary

This project aims to improve the cardiovascular health of seniors living in subsidized housing by implementing the successful community-based Cardiovascular Health Awareness Program (CHAP). CHAP is a patient-centred, interdisciplinary, multi-pronged, community-led CVD and stroke prevention and management program designed to prevent and reduce the impact of cardiovascular disease in older adults. The program addresses common cardiovascular disease risk factors, such as smoking, physical activity and poor diet by raising awareness of health and community resources available to encourage self-care and appropriate management of cardiovascular disease. A randomized controlled trial will be used to evaluate the impact of CHAP on healthcare utilization by older adults living in subsidized housing.
