Abstract
The high prevalence of high-need community-dwelling older adults highlighted the importance of screening. By using the High-need Community-dwelling Older Adults Screening Scale (HCOASS) to conduct early screening and assessment, older adults with high needs can be identified. That can enhance the preventive nature of home visits.
