UNit 9 Assignment
Support Services Recommendation Report
The final step for the course project is to integrate your previous information and propose a recommendation regarding a gap in existing resources of a chosen program, agency, or organization in your local community that provides a specific service or a range of services to older adults.
This should not be a re-submission of previous assignments, but rather an analysis, explanation, and synthesis of how the knowledge you gained from previous assignments leads to your recommendations.
Directions
- To successfully complete this project, integrate the information you gained from the previous assignments in Unit 3, Unit 5, and Unit 7 into your Support Service Recommendation Report and include the following:
- In Unit 3, you did a survey of local services. You explained what was available for older adults in your community.
- Incorporate your analysis concerning the extent these available services are meeting the needs for the number of older adults in your local population.
- Compare epidemiological data, including mortality and morbidity statistics noting significant differences by cultural and ethnic groups, and aspects that foster or inhibit successful aging.
- In Unit 5, you interviewed an older adult, a representative of formal support services, and a representative of informal support services to learn about older adult needs and use of services.
- Analyze your findings from the respondents regarding involvement with support services.
- Add a component to propose strategies that address social and cultural biases and discriminatory practices toward the aging population.
- In Unit 7, you conducted a literature review of support services for older adults, based on older adult needs.
- Include your analysis from the literature as to which services are working successfully for older adults, what needs they service, and where the services are located.

- Analyze what is or is not working well with the organization or program.
- Analyze the older adult need not being met.
- Analyze political, organizational, economic, and environmental factors of your chosen organization.
- Examine the perceptions and treatment of older adults from a social, cultural, and ecological perspective. Include the concepts of respect, family obligations, and gender and how they influence older adults, especially the oldest old.
