The ability of older people to overcome adversity: A review of the resilience concept
چکیده انگلیسی

Resilience has been recognized as the ability to bounce back from adversity and regain health. This review seeks to explore the validity of the current understanding of resilience as it applies to older people and its application as guide for interventions. One mixed method, 19 qualitative and 22 quantitative papers were located through a systematic search of nine databases. Results confirmed a number of themes of personal resources. Older people who have the ability to use personal resources and see the world beyond their own concerns are more likely to be resilient. In addition a number of environmental factors were identified including social support from community, family and professionals as well as access to care, availability of resources and the influence of social policy and societal responses. Nurses can facilitate resilience of older people by maintaining or enhancing social support and facilitating access to care and resources.
