Social prescribing—an evidence-based approach to matching individuals with social interventions tailored to their needs—holds promise in bridging the gap between healthcare and community-based services. However, there is a lack of structured, cross-sector tools to support this process. This presentation describes the initial steps of a community-engaged initiative to adapt and implement a Social Prescribing Decision Support Tool for use across diverse settings, including senior centers, health systems, and community-based organizations. Guided by asocial-ecological conceptual framework, we plan to use qualitative methods and implementation science to adapt an existing Social Prescribing Decision Support Tool through an iterative process with feedback from older adults, community program staff, healthcare providers, and national experts. The resulting tool will account for intake and referral workflows, as well asthe capacity to implement social prescribing in each setting. It will facilitate structured assessment and individualized matching of older adults to social interventions that address key dimensions of social connection (structure, function, and quality) . We will present preliminary findings from the adaptation process, discuss lessons learned from community partnerships, and outline plans for a pilot implementation in two  \nInnovation in Aging, 2025, Vol. 9, No. S2 461  \ncommunity-based organizations. This work aims to advance community-engaged scholarship by co-designing scalable, pragmatic solutions that enhance social prescribing efforts, promote interdisciplinary collaboration, and improve social well-being outcomes for older adults.","cbCaircTGRciJoBV","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaircTGRciJoBV","pdf",850674,"English","# Background and Problem\n## Social connection, loneliness, and social isolation\n# Approach to Adaptation\n## Community-engaged initiative and stakeholders\n## Qualitative methods and implementation science\n# Tool Capabilities and Expected Outcomes\n## Intake, referral workflows, and setting capacity\n## Structured assessment and individualized matching\n# Preliminary Results and Next Steps\n## Lessons from partnerships and pilot implementation","[{\"question\":\"What problem does the initiative address for older adults?\",\"answer\":\"It addresses loneliness and social isolation by improving how social interventions are identified and connected to individuals.\"},{\"question\":\"How does social prescribing work in this context?\",\"answer\":\"Social prescribing is an evidence-based approach that matches individuals with social interventions tailored to their needs, linking healthcare with community-based services.\"},{\"question\":\"What will the adapted decision support tool enable?\",\"answer\":\"It will support structured assessment and individualized matching, covering intake and referral workflows and accounting for each setting’s capacity to implement social prescribing.\"}]","ADAPTING A SOCIAL PRESCRIBING DECISION SUPPORT TOOL FOR COMMUNITY AND HEALTH ORGANIZATIONS - Abstract | PDF",1790635049]
