摘要

隨著醫療科技的進步及少子化的趨勢，高齡化的社會結構已是無法避免，加上人類死亡因素由傳染病轉向不健康行為與生活型態相關的疾病，因此如何藉由運動促進減緩影響銀髮族生活機能的各種慢性疾病將是本世紀重要的議題。
由於銀髮族退休後逐漸脫離社群，從事各種活動時的支持體系相對降低，相對影響銀髮族參與運動的機會。本文即在探討健康社區組織對於促進銀髮族參與運動的重要性，銀髮族健康維持對個人、家庭、社會的影響，正確運動內容、專業介入對銀髮族的益處及社區健康營造的規劃與步驟。在社區健康營造策略上政府應先選定資源及條件適合的社區加以輔導，運用社區內現有的組織及人力資源協同建立良好的推展網絡、培訓機制及社區運動資訊網，過程中應重視社區民眾的需求及共同參與，藉此擬定具有共識的推展計劃提高參與的人口。希望藉由對社區健康營造策略的探討能有助於了解健康社區組織的建立，對促進銀髮族運動的參與及生活機能提升的重要性。
