About this trial
The goal of this study is to continue to develop, implement, and evaluate a unique reablement service, ASSIST 2.0. The project will determine the differences in the reablement service (ASSIST 2.0) compared to regular home care in terms of older adults' performance in daily activities, self-efficacy, perceived health, quality of life, frailty and perceived person-centered approach.
The research question is: Can older adults receiving ASSIST 2.0 improve their performance and satisfaction in daily life activities, experience a higher level of self-efficacy, perceived health, quality of life and a person-centered approach?
The ASSIST project involves older adults receiving home care, home care assistants, occupational and physical therapists. ASSIST 2.0 reablement consists of the following components:
* an intervention aimed at older adults to help them perform daily activities they need and want to do. This will be achieved through optimal support from home care staff, * an on-line education provided by the researchers for all staff in the art and science of reablement, * training and support through mentorship and coaching provided by occupational and physical therapists for home care staff to ensure the proper delivery of reablement.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
1
The improvement of performance and/or satisfaction in prioritized everyday activities after the end of the reablement intervention, 6 and 12 months post baseline.
The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) will be used. The COPM measures the level of self-assessed performanace and satisfaction of up to five prioritized everyday activities that the person needs, wants or is expected to do, but percieves difficulties doing them. The person rates, for each everyday activity, on a scale of 1 to 10 the prioritisation, the performance and the satisfaction of the activity. For the prioritisation 10 represents very important, one not important). For the performance scale, 10 represents the person does the activity extremely well, and one represents can not do the activity at all. For the satisfaction scale, 10 represents being extremely satisfied and and one not satisfied at all. An increase in two points or more from base-line to follow-up is a positive clinically significant difference.
Time frame
Measurements will be at baseline, two weeks post base line, at the end of the intervention (6-12 weeks post baseline), 6 and 12 months post baseline.Sponsors and contacts
