It responds to the needs of an increasing ageing population that has to deal with related health needs in long-term care, community health and social services, particularly for chronic conditions and psychosocial support. The book consists of three sections on policy and development of aged care, holistic and humanistic care for older adults, and capacity building for ageing with dignity, respectively. Topics include the latest initiatives in aged care, appropriate services and delivery models, lifestyle modification, psychosocial and environmental considerations, professional development, technologies, and social capital. The chapters review and discuss these issues within a global context, illustrated by examples from Asian countries, underpinned by locally based empirical research. Contributors include academics and practitioners from diversified professional backgrounds that include medicine, nursing, pharmacy, traditional Chinese medicine, dietetics, and allied health. The book traverses into territories in the social sciences, life sciences, and sports sciences, while also touching on areas of business and administration, hospitality, law, public policy, and information technology in connection with public health. The contents serve as a topical reference for tertiary studies in ageing and related disciplines such as well-being and are also useful to policymakers, community and public health practitioners, health executives and interns working in areas of policy and practice pertinent to care development, health delivery models, planning, quality, ethics, better health promotion, professional training, and monitoring for older adults. 410 0$aQuality of Life in Asia,$x2211-0569 ;$v16 606 $aSociology 606 $aSocial groups 606 $aQuality of life 606 $aPublic health 606 $aSocial policy 606 $aPalliative treatment 606 $aSocial medicine 606 $aSociology of Family, Youth and Aging 606 $aQuality of Life Research 606 $aPublic Health 606 $aSocial Policy 606 $aPalliative Care 606 $aHealth, Medicine and Society 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aSocial groups. 615 0$aQuality of life. 615 0$aPublic health. 615 0$aSocial policy. 615 0$aPalliative treatment. 615 0$aSocial medicine. 615 14$aSociology of Family, Youth and Aging. 615 24$aQuality of Life Research. 615 24$aPublic Health. 615 24$aSocial Policy. 615 24$aPalliative Care. 615 24$aHealth, Medicine and Society. 676 $a612.67 702 $aLaw$b Vincent Tin Sing 702 $aFong$b Ben Yuk Fai 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910592979503321 996 $aAgeing with Dignity in Hong Kong and Asia$92914711 997 $aUNINA
