Given the actively aging population in Honolulu, Hawai‘i, there is a growing necessity to provide education to individuals and their families regarding the available resources as they grow older. Collaborating with the Amazing Care Network, our team delved into a number of issues for aging folks, including end-of-life care communication and the distribution of that pertinent information to individuals. Our group then analyzed Amazing Care Network's event structures, identified key conversations among the elderly, and devised strategies for engaging them through focus groups and individual interviews. Following the analysis of the findings, we recommended the most desired topics to learn about and the most effective means of disseminating that information.
