Introduction

In the evolving landscape of healthcare, the integration of research findings into practice is crucial for enhancing service delivery and outcomes. This blog post explores the insights gained from the research article titled "The Aging, Community and Health Research Unit—Community Partnership Program for older adults with type 2 diabetes and multiple chronic conditions: a feasibility study" and discusses how practitioners, especially those involved in online therapy services like TinyEYE, can leverage these findings to improve their practice.
