This, alongside the growing number of older adults aging into and with disability and most countries\u2019 reliance on informal rather than formal care may lead to a care gap in future decades.\u00a0Older adults without care partners are likely in a precarious position and face adverse consequences. However, our knowledge is limited by scholars\u2019 focus on one or more proxies for having no available care partner, such as living alone or having no available kin.\u00a0Using the Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines and PRISMA-ScR protocol, we conducted a scoping review of nine databases to map the current peer-reviewed evidence regarding this population\u2019s precarities, outcomes, and interventions using the Health Equity Promotion Model (HEPM) as our guiding framework. Our comprehensive search strategy resulted in 5100 unique articles, 33 of which met our inclusion criteria. Three independent reviewers screened and extracted data, and the first author used deductive content analysis with the pre-specified HEPM framework. Fifteen studies reported precarities\u00a0related to environmental\/structural forces, and psychological, social, behavioral, and biological processes, which were identified across a similar number of studies. Twenty-four studies reported adverse health and well-being outcomes with more focus on biological than psychological outcomes (19 versus 8). Four studies tested interventions, and reported environmental\/structural, psychological, social, behavioral, and biological effects. Only 13 of the 33 reviewed studies set out to explicitly study older adults without care partners, and no studies focused on marginalized sub-groups. This scoping review highlights our lack of understanding of the populations\u2019 distinctive precarities and outcomes, and the vital research needed to develop and test interventions that effectively address this growing population\u2019s unique needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Congratulations to <strong>Brittany <\/strong>in reaching this milestone in the PhD program!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Join us in attending our doctoral student, Brittany Jones\u2019 qualifying paper defense on Wednesday, May 29 at 1:30PM PST in Room 245C (Research Commons) or Zoom: https:\/\/washington.zoom.us\/j\/96855385388\/ Meeting ID: 968 5538 5388.
