Evaluation of Homecare Reablement, the Trondheim Model

April 20, 2017 updated by: Norwegian University of Science and Technology
The aim is to evaluate a model of home-based rehabilitation. The intervention targets elder persons who receive homecare services, but still are relatively independent in most activities of daily living. The model focuses on early identification of decline in function and intervention in the home environment through close cooperation between the participant, homecare services and therapists.
