- W2997720717 abstract "Introduction The ENvironment and Vision Optimisation in Residential Care (EnVORC) project was a collaborative project between the National Ageing Research Institute, the Centre for Eye Research Australia and three low-level residential aged care facilities in Victoria. Method Participating residents underwent a comprehensive assessment of vision, depression, cognitive impairment and function. Their bedrooms and ensuites were also assessed to determine the extent of environmental factors influencing function and quality of life in this setting. The research team collaborated with each facility to discuss avenues for addressing identified vision and environmental issues at a facility wide, and an individual resident level. Funding was provided to facilities to implement small scale environmental modifications and residents were referred for further assessment where indicated, including for provision of corrective lenses. Staff and residents were invited to participate in focus groups to discuss the impact of vision and the environment in the facility. Staff were also invited to a training session addressing issues raised in the assessments and residents attended information sessions provided by Vision Australia. Follow-up assessments were conducted to measure change over a nine month period. Results Seventy-six residents from the three facilities were recruited to the study (40% of all facility beds; 58% female). Twenty-six participants (35%) had modifiable vision impairment (20 residents requiring new glasses and six residents with operable cataracts). Out of a possible 64 environmental recommendations, participants had on average 7.6 areas requiring action (SD=3; range 2-16). Changes at follow-up will be presented. Conclusion This study found that a high proportion of residents in low level care facilities experienced vision impairment and had environmental issues, many of which were modifiable. The presentation will explore strategies, resources and training that are available for use in residential aged care to ensure modifiable factors to optimise vision and the environment are identified and if possible addressed. Funding The project was funded through the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing, Eye Health Demonstration Grants Program." @default.
