Abstract
Question: Does “Home Rehabilitation” following hip fracture repair improve mobility for nursing home residents?
Design: Previously walking nursing home residents (n=240) with hip fractures received 4 weeks of home rehabilitation in their nursing home or usual care. In parallel, families and nursing home staff for the first 30 participants were invited to share their perceptions of the journey for residents at interviews/focus groups.
Intervention: Physiotherapy (minimum 3 session’s week for 4 weeks) focused on restoration of transfers and limited mobility.
Outcome Measures: The nursing home life space diameter (NHLSD), mobility status including level of independence and qualitative data organized as a thematic analysis with the assistance of NVivo 10 were collected.
