Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and potential impact of video analysis of footage taken with a GoPro camera video in comparison to a homeowner checklist or gold standard home assessment as a means of detecting home fall hazards.

Investigators hypothesize that the assessment of homes for fall hazards with a GoPro camera will be better than a homeowner paper checklist in hazard identification.

Conditions

  • Identification of Home Fall Hazards

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Video based/Therapists' rating of comprehensive-home-fall-hazard-checklist (vt-CHFHC)

The participant will use GoPro technology and follow standardized instructions to inspect each room of their house. They will navigate through their home wearing the GoPro camera, recording images about their home and their usual activities and use a talk-aloud approach to describe what they are doing and seeing. The evaluator will provide no feedback during the assessments.

BEHAVIORAL

Paper based/Patient self-rating of comprehensive-home-fall-hazard-checklist (pp-CHFHC)

A paper version of CHFHC and other self-reported documents will be completed by the participants in their homes based on standardized verbal instruction provided by the research staff.
