In this chapter, the triangulation analysis of connections between older adults, relevant stakeholders, and community will be made in order to acknowledge the challenges resulting from demographic changes, identify the gaps in current health and social policy in the field of geriatric care, and outline the pathways for joint actions to achieve successful aging. This analysis will also consider health and health equity drivers, highlighting the relevance of the community-led ecosystem in the spreading and scaling up of the person-centered and integrated healthcare model. By focusing on frailty and frailty-related consequences, this chapter will reflect on the need for implementing joint actions that promote health throughout the lifecycle and that empower citizens for informed decision making. It will also discuss the role of modern societies in creating innovative solutions for successful aging.

Eustress concept was less used by researches at the end of XX century and really has disappeared from glossaries of books of Psychosomatics, Health Psychology and Behavioral Medicine. Fortunately, some authors have renewed last years this concept adding other nuances and original peculiarities beneficial for physical and mental health. This paper exemplifies, among these contributions, the strong relation of eustress with immunogenic traits (as self efficiency) and Flow concept, and some humoral markers of eustress (serotonin, oxytocin, endorphins, interferon gamma etc.). Own author’s opinion suggests a strong link between eustress and psychological well being, and underlines the role of eustress as a main component of the new Fava‘s psychotherapy, Well Being Therapy.
