Methods: The population consisted of a representative sample of elderly aged 65 years and older who had presented at three specific time points at two community health centers and three family practice residency programs in Texas. Results: Overall, significant age-related inverse relationships among the elderly were shown in 9 of the 30 time/PHS pairs examined. The delivery rates of pneumococcal immunization and assessment of tobacco/smoking, physical activity, and nutrition significantly increased from time 1 to time 2 for the elderly. Tetanus-Diphtheria immunization was the only service to significantly increase from time 2 to time 3. Discussion: We found that PHS were not universally delivered to all older adults. For those PHS that are recommended for routine use among older adults, the clinician is required to deliver individualized PHS based on the patient’s risk status. Other services, however, should be systematically provided for high-risk patients.老年人預防保健服務縱貫性研究AgedPreventive health servicesLongitudinal study
