155
I-HOPE (in-home occupational performance evaluation)
Measures in-home activity performance of P-E after home mod interventions context: rehab, home health, home mod specialist PEO: client centered, occupation orientation - uses card sort, identifies satisfaction and barriers to participation
156
WeHSA (Westmead home safety assessment)
- systematically identifies fall hazards Context: home health, home mod specialist PEO: client centered, occupation orientation - checklist to measure client relevancy
157
Safer home V3
- most common - assess client ability to carry out functional activity in home; measure effectiveness of home mods - Context: rehab, home health - PEO: occupational orientation - uses interview & observation of client participation in activity; assess safety risks
158
COUGAR home safety assessment (CHSA)
- assessment of home safety with focus on environmental safety - Context: acute, rehab, home health - PEO: environmental orientation - observation, testing, questioning for safety
159
Home fast

Well elderly Wellness model
168
Well elderly

169
Wellness model
Awareness of choices toward successful lifestyle - principles address physical, spiritual, emotional, social, and occupational
170
Factors that promote wellness
Genetics Physical activity Proper diet & nutrition Social support Spirituality Perceived control & self-efficacy Engagement in valued activity. Established routine
171
Prevention concepts
Primordial prevention Primary prevention Secondary prevention Tertiary prevention
172
Primordial prevention
Social and economic policies effecting health
173
Primary prevention
Risk factors that lead to injury/ disease (ex: safety belt laws, vaccines) - prevention before symptomatic
174
Secondary prevention
Injury/ disease one exposed to risk factor, but still in early/ "preclinical" stage - asymptomatic but risk factor identified
175
Tertiary prevention
Rehabilitating person with injury/disease to reduce complications (ex: vocational rehab to retain workers after injury) - intervention/direct service
176
Characteristic of evidence based programs that support health and wellness for OAs
Health promotion Transtheoretical Model of Change (TTM) aka motivational interviewing Lifestyle redesign
177
Health promotion
- explores use of occupation for staying healthy: body, self environment - service delivery: individual, group, consultation
178
Transtheoretical Model of Change (TTM) aka motivational interviewing
"Intentional change occurs over time --> when applies to OAs it promotes health" - 5 stages: pre contemplation --> contemplation --> preparation --> action --> maintenance
179
Lifestyle redesign
"Well elderly" study explored impact of occupation in aging population, geared towards improving health, QOL, and life satisfaction - results: positive gains and fewer declines (less deterioration in OT group)
180

Subacute rehab (SAR)
Philosophy: different than LTC Roles: (1) OT role is similar to acute rehabilitation & (2) staff has different demands Goal: increased independence by discharge whether it is home, assisted living, or SNF
180
T or F: In both SAR & LTAC the patients cannot tolerate the conditions of acute care or acute rehab, but can still do some rehabilitation
True
180
LTAC: long term acute care
