No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The observational study will conduct interprofessional assessments by registered nurses, physiotherapists, and occupational therapists of health determinants (i.e., frailty, physical, cognitive, and sensory function, mental and social health, and alcohol use) in older adults (≥75) living at home and applying for a municipal health service. The participants will take part in two assessments, baseline and 5 months. Based on the baseline assessment healthcare professionals will identify factors that can affect older adults' health, provide tailored information, offer measures, and link with proper health services. The aim is that older adults maintain health, function, and self-care and thus can continue aging at home. The main research question is:) How can interprofessional assessments of older adults living at home reduce the risk of impaired function, maintain health and ensure that the elderly receive tailored services?
