This paper introduces ℞OSI, a web tool for independent living staff to recommend activities addressing social isolation in older adults. It provides personalized suggestions based on input questions, aiming to enhance social engagement. Future steps involve testing and refining with older adults and experts.

The pandemic exacerbated social isolation in older adults, leading to heightened loneliness. Recreational activities, including social prescriptions like educational classes and nature-based activities, can help alleviate this issue. This paper outlines a study creating a decision support tool (RxOSI) to suggest recreational activities for combating social isolation in older adults.
