Funded Activity Summary

Occupational therapy discharge planning with at-risk older people aims to enable safe and independent transition from hospital to home. Previous research shows how potentially serious problems identified on home visits with the client were not identified in hospital consultations. This randomised trial will evaluate the efficacy of the HOME discharge planning intervention in enhancing outcomes for older people and its cost effectiveness.
