Summary

With increased aging population, there is a higher rate of having chronic diseases and cognitive impairment. In order to achieve successful aging, it is important for community-dwelling older adults to perform better self-management with improved health literacy and various kinds of support. The study aims to develop a Community-based E-Health Program (CeHP) for Older Adults Living with Chronic Diseases , evaluate the effectiveness of CeHP, and refine the program based on the outcome measurement. A cluster controlled trial will be adopted. A follow-up process evaluation will be conducted to assess the acceptability, strengths and limitations of CeHP based on the participants' perspectives. The research contributes to engage and empower older adults living in the community to manage their chronic condition, and foster collaboration with the goal of translating evidence into action.
