Abstract

ABSTRACT Place-based identity and person-place fit are called into question during a pandemic, such as COVID-19, when older adults’ relationship to place may be in flux. Both academic and gray literature detail drastic changes in the way many aspects of place will be affected by a pandemic. While the dominant discourse focuses on medical and health changes, this brief report uses the Person-Place Fit Measure for Older Adults (PPFM-OA) and its broader, five subscale place domains (Primary or Basic Needs/Necessities; Neighborhood Changes and Moving; Identity and Place Attachment; Community Value; and Services and Resources) as a way to assess the pandemic’s impact on the daily lives of older adults from their own points of view.
