Loneliness and Social Isolation Antidotes: Wellness-Based Interventions and Programs
In this presentation, we will explore social wellness and how it can be used to stave off the negative impacts of loneliness and social isolation. We will look at how loneliness and social isolation is increasing in the United States as well as the effects of loneliness, isolation, perceived social support and instrumental social support on mental and physical health outcomes. Did you know that recent research suggests that loneliness may be more dangerous than smoking 15 cigarettes per day? We will discuss how to assess (and reassess) residents' psychosocial needs in an effort to be responsive to each resident's unique needs and situation. After discussing some of the foundation research and issues, we will spend the rest of the time exploring practical interventions and programs that can improve social engagement, wellness, and quality of life.

Who Should Attend: Administrators and leaders in Long Term Care healthcare settings.
