A Community Paramedicine Initiative for Older Adults Living in Subsidized Housing (CHAP-EMS/Renamed to CP@Clinic)

McMaster University·interventional·Posted Jun 2, 2014·Updated Aug 13, 2019

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating CHAP-EMS/CP@clinic for Cardiovascular Diseases and Diabetes Mellitus. Completed, enrolled 1,200 participants across 5 sites.

Detailed Summary

Older adults living in subsidized housing report poorer health. Their age and low income make it harder for them to use community services. Many older adults have heart disease and diabetes, which lead to frequent emergency calls and hospital admissions. To decrease the costs of treating heart disease and diabetes through emergency and hospitalization, improved screening and health education is needed. Our program will take place in communal areas within housing buildings of older adults and deliver a heart disease, diabetes, and falls risk check-up with health education. This is expected to improve the health of older adults leading to fewer emergency calls and hospital visits.
