Factors influencing access to green health prescribing in primary care for older adults - a qualitative systematic review

Background

Green health prescribing (GHP) refers to nature-based interventions (NBIs) prescribed by a clinician or qualified health or social care professional. Given the ageing global population and increasing care needs posing severe challenges for healthcare systems, GHP has emerged as a potentially effective and efficient scheme to support healthy ageing in older people living with long-term conditions. This evidence review aimed to identify the barriers and enablers to access, uptake, implementation and delivery of GHP and associated NBIs.
