Co-living with migrant domestic workers (MDWs) to care for older adults became an emergent phenomenon internationally, particularly in Asian countries.

Linear regression was performed to examine the association between co-living with MDWs and loneliness. The results showed that co-living with MDWs was significantly associated with lower levels of overall loneliness (β = -0.636; p = .022) and emotional loneliness (β = -0.298, p = .039), but not for social loneliness (β = -0.337, p = .084). While MDWs could be an attachment figure for older adults, they might not be effective in promoting the social integration of older adults. There is a need to investigate the barriers of social integration faced by older adults co-living with MDWs.The Coronavirus 2019 pandemic strongly affected our sleep and dream activity.
