A thorough understanding of later-life transitions is key to designing and providing healthcare services that can help older adults and their carers navigate such potentially unsettling times in life. Yet, to date, little is known about which types of transitions have drawn the attention of healthcare services scholars and how these transitions have been explored, made sense of and narrated over time. To fill this gap, we conducted a field-based narrative review seeking to critically summarise prior health services and service management research on transitions in late life and reconstruct the main narratives elaborated in this area.

Abstract
A thorough understanding of later-life transitions is key to designing and providing healthcare services that can help older adults and their carers navigate such potentially unsettling times in life. Yet, to date, little is known about which types of transitions have drawn the attention of healthcare services scholars and how these transitions have been explored, made sense of and narrated over time. To fill this gap, we conducted a field-based narrative review seeking to critically summarise prior health services and service management research on transitions in late life and reconstruct the main narratives elaborated in this area.
