Abstract
Abstract Housing with services programs have potential to benefit residents and operators of affordable senior housing communities. This study aimed to understand housing and community partner views on the benefits of the R3 program. Data derived from 31 interviews with R3 program managers and wellness team members, executives and direct service staff at the intervention sites, and community partners. Overwhelmingly positive overall assessments of the R3 program were reported. Concrete benefits to residents included receiving additional attention and support; connecting with family and health care resources; enhancing group programming; preventing ambulance transports; helping with transitions; and improving health and quality of life. Psychosocial benefits to residents included: empowering program participants; providing socio-emotional support; and alleviating psychosocial distress. Benefits to housing sites included augmenting staffing levels, skills, and capabilities; proactively tracking and responding to resident needs; lowering resident turnover; and learning from and adopting procedures and processes underlying the R3 philosophy.
