Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: In the framework of the ValueCare project (funded by EC, ref 875215), the Valencia pilot site assessed the comprehensive health of 240 older people with frailty. ValueCare aims to deliver personalised integrated health and social care and better outcomes for older people. METHODS: For the health evaluation, a comprehensive approach was adopted, based on validated questionnaires that address not only mental and physical health but also other key dimensions in older people's well-being, namely unwanted loneliness and nutrition. RESULTS: This study provides an overview of the overall health status of 60-year-old people from March to December 2022 in the city of Valencia, allowing for a comparison between national and European health indicators. CONCLUSIONS: Older people in the city of Valencia reported good health, quality of life, independency, nutrition and social wellbeing, with some differences between gender.
