Evaluating the Efficacy of a Detection and Prevention Program for Frail Community-dwelling Older Adults (D-SCOPE)

24 april 2019 uppdaterad av: Liesbeth De Donder, Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Study Protocol of the D-SCOPE Project With a Randomized Controlled Trial, Evaluating the Efficacy of a Detection and Prevention Program for Frail Community-dwelling Older Adults

The evaluation of a detection and prevention program which aims to create a continuum of care and support for frail community-dwelling older people (from early detection, over intervention, to follow-up). First, the program aims to develop methods to easily, accurately and timely detect and prevent a negative frailty-balance in older people. Second, the study aims to improve the quality and efficacy of care and support given to frail community-dwelling older people.
