‘Shelter From the Storm’: A <scp>FINGER</scp> ‐Like Five‐Domain Lifestyle Intervention to Promote Cognitive Health and Well‐Being in Older Adults in Taiwan
The FDLI model emphasises the practical role of gerontological nurses in implementing community-based interventions that promote healthy ageing. It can be readily adapted for other cultural contexts and applied in low-resource settings. Training programs for health professionals can incorporate FDLI principles to support person-centred care, especially in underserved populations. Policy-makers may consider supporting the integration of lifestyle interventions into community health systems to delay cognitive decline and enhance quality of life. By fostering cognitive health, emotional well-being and social engagement, the FDLI contributes to active ageing and aligns with WHO strategies for age-friendly and sustainable communities (WHO, 2020). Its use of existing community assets also supports ecological approaches to long-term care.
