Physical Therapists - Recommending EnhanceFitness to Expand Reach (PT-REFER)
Promoting Healthy Aging by Scaling Up What Works
The goal of the study is to develop and test an intervention toolkit to increase the enrollment in EnhanceFitness (an evidence-based group physical activity program for older adults) at Young Men Christian Association (YMCA) sites through physical therapist referrals.
A cluster-randomized trial will be used to compare current and intervention toolkit approaches to generating enrollment in EnhanceFitness at YMCAs. The objective of this trial is to compare the effectiveness and cost of the current approach for generating enrollment in EnhanceFitness ("business as usual" or "control arm") with the intervention toolkit that YMCA staff will use to engage physical therapists to refer their older adult patients to EnhanceFitness (the "intervention").

Detaljeret beskrivelse
One of the greatest challenges the public health community faces is increasing the adoption of evidence-based, health-promoting behaviors and practices. This is particularly true in the areas of chronic disease prevention and healthy aging. Of the 10 leading health indicators for Healthy People 2020, five are related to healthy aging (immunization, maintaining a healthy weight, mental health, physical activity, and avoiding tobacco use) and can be improved through participation in evidence-based programs.
Enhance®Fitness (EF) is a community-based physical-activity program that has demonstrated physical, social and emotional benefits for older adults and is recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Arthritis Program. In 2012, YMCA of the USA (Y-USA) made delivery of EF to older adults one of its highest strategic priorities. Y-USA is currently implementing EF at YMCAs in 22 states, with plans to continue expanding the program throughout its national network.
Older adults value provider recommendations of community-based programs like EF and are much more likely to participate if a provider recommends that they do so. Previous studies show that primary-care providers (such as physicians and nurses) are eager to find effective physical-activity programs for older patients and willing to recommend these programs. Much less is known about how to facilitate recommendations by physical therapists, who have frequent and intensive contact with older adults, and may be better positioned to make referrals to physical activity programs than primary care providers due to longer appointment times and other factors.
The goal of the study is to develop and test an intervention toolkit to increase the enrollment in EF YMCA sites through physical therapist referrals. The investigators conducted interviews with YMCA staff who manage the delivery of EF in their associations. The objective of these interviews with YMCA staff was to inform the content of the intervention toolkit. The interviews focused on the YMCA staff members' experience with evidence-based programs, their current provider outreach approaches and sites, and their beliefs about what they hope to get out of increased referrals for EF from physical therapists. Similar interviews were conducted with physical therapists across the country to gather data about components of referral practices, attitudes regarding recommending EF, and the logistics of how YMCA associations can best work with providers across the country to disseminate information about EF.
The investigators used this information to develop the intervention, which consists of a toolkit for YMCA staff to use to engage physical therapists to refer their suitable clients to EF at a YMCA. A cluster-randomized trial will be used to compare the effectiveness and cost for generating enrollment in EF of the current approach ("business as usual" or "control arm") and the intervention toolkit that YMCA staff will use to engage physical therapists to refer their older adult patients to EF (the "intervention").
