Measure
Intervention
Task Specific Training Task-Specific Training (TST) which is the repeated, active practice of a motor skill or activity that is meaningful to an individual with the goal of skill acquisition and retention will be provided over 5 sessions after initial an initial assessment by a physical therapist. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with exposure is a psychotherapeutic intervention that focuses on modifying individuals' thoughts and behavior guided through graded exposure will be guided by a psychologist. CATCHES: At the baseline visit (T0), informed consent will be obtained, and baseline questionnaires and measurements completed. A physical activity monitor will be provided. After discharge, Task Specific Training guided by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Exposure delivered over 7 one-hour sessions including two intake sessions by specialists and five follow up sessions delivered by CHWs individually at home over 3 months. After the final session at 12 weeks (about 3 months), participants will complete a study end visit (T1) which will include follow up questionnaires and measurements.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and 3 months

Population: 18 out of 22 participants completed the questionnaire up to 3 months.

This outcome is designed to measure the change in fear of falling. This is a 16-item self-reported questionnaire with a score range of 1-100. 1 = no confidence and 100 = completely confident. The higher the score, the lesser the fear. Total scores are calculated by summing items (16-1600 range) and dividing by 16.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and 3 months

Population: 19 out of 22 participants completed the test up to 3 months.

This exploratory outcome is to measure change in physical function. The Timed Up and Go Test (TUG) assesses mobility, balance, walking ability, and fall risk in older adults. The test involves recording the length of time it takes a participant to stand from a chair, walk 3 meters, turn around, walk back to the chair, and sit down. Change in time to perform the test will be assessed. Measured in number of second taken to complete the test. When the number is negative, it means that the participant took less time to complete the test at 3 months compared to baseline.
