Abstract
Background: The implementation of housing with support is rapidly expanding, particularly as life expectancy is increasing throughout the world. This expansion is likely to intensify in the context of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which has revealed the risks of relying primarily on nursing homes. This mixed-methods systematic review aims to: 1)explore older people's perceptions and experiences of housing with support and 2) examine the impact of providing housing with support for older people. Methods: The databases Ovid Medline, Ovid Social Policy & Practice, EBSCO CINAHL, and EBSCO SOCIndex will be searched, and grey literature will also be identified. Quality assessment will be carried out using Joanna Briggs Institute's Critical Appraisal Checklist for Qualitative Research as well as a tool from the National Institutes of Health for observational cohort studies. This review will employ convergent parallel design; as such, qualitative and quantitative findings will be synthesised separately in the initial stage of analysis. The results from the qualitative and quantitative syntheses will then be integrated in the final stage of the analysis. Conclusion: This systematic review will synthesise the evidence regarding older people's perceptions and experiences of housing with support and the impact of providing housing with support for older people on their quality of life.

The implementation of housing with support is rapidly expanding, as life expectancy is increasing throughout the world
This expansion of housing with support is likely to intensify in the context of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID19), which has revealed the risks of relying primarily on nursing homes
Doing so will allow those involved in policy and practice to incorporate the preferences of older people, which could contribute to efforts to increase demand for housing with support
