Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the experiences and perceived impacts of the Aging, Community and Health Research Unit-Community Partnership Program (ACHRU-CPP) from the perspectives of older adults with diabetes and other chronic conditions. The program provided a 6-month self-management evidence-based intervention for community-living older adults with diabetes and at least one other chronic condition. The findings showed that the program had positive effects on diabetes self-management, including improved knowledge, physical activity, and eating habits, as well as socialization opportunities. The intervention team also helped connect older adults to community resources for better health and self-management.

Summary: This study explores the applicability of the theoretical framework of acceptability (TFA) in surgical interventions and provides methodological guidance for its systematic use in research. Acceptability was assessed through theory-informed semi-structured interviews with 15 patients who had undergone joint replacement surgery at least 3 months ago. Results show that the TFA is sufficient for assessing acceptability but requires an additional construct to capture perceptions of risk and safety.
