Summary

This study will examine whether a reablement approach can help people receiving community-based long-term care maintain or improve their independence, daily functioning, and quality of life. Approximately 300 adults from eight long-term care facilities across Taiwan will participate. The 12-week reablement program includes group and individualized activities designed to support mobility, cognitive function, daily activities, and social participation. Participants' physical and cognitive function, daily living abilities, emotional well-being, quality of life, and personal goals will be assessed before and after the program.

The study will also include observations and interviews with care providers, participants, and family members to understand their experiences with the program and identify factors that support successful implementation. The findings are expected to help develop a practical reablement model for community-based long-term care in Taiwan and provide guidance for improving care quality, independence, and healthy aging.
