BACKGROUND: The growing aging population and staff shortages are placing pressure on Dutch nursing homes (NHs). These challenges have led to an increased interest in digital health technologies. Among these are wearable devices that allow for remote continuous monitoring of vital signs. An example is …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the feasibility of the Occupational Therapy at Home E-Rehabilitation (OTHER) intervention for persons post-stroke (age > 55) transitioning to home. METHODS: A mixed-methods feasibility study was conducted. Qualitative data included semi-structured interviews with persons post-stroke …

OBJECTIVE: Geriatric rehabilitation (GR) is an essential component of transitional care. However, insight into longitudinal care use and related costs is limited. This study mapped GR trajectories over a six-month period, identified latent groups with similar cost patterns and examined patient-level …

Voormalige landbouwgronden die worden omgevormd tot voedselbossen krijgen vaak te maken met uiteenlopende uitdagingen, waarvan bodemverdichting een van de meest voorkomende is. Deze verdichting is veelal het gevolg van begrazing of langdurig gebruik van zware landbouwmachines, waardoor de bodem onder …

Background The increasing demands of an aging population, healthcare workforce shortages, financial constraints, and a shift in care perspectives call for rethinking geriatric rehabilitation (GR).

Deze scriptie onderzoekt hoe schaduw van vaste zonnepanelen de productiviteit en kwaliteit van een perennial-ryegrass/white-clover grasland beïnvloedt. Op een proefperceel van Massey University (Palmerston North, Nieuw-Zeeland) werden vier zones vergeleken: onder de panelen, tussen panelen, aan de uiteinden …

Abstract Background There is a shift from inpatient to home-based geriatric rehabilitation (HBGR), and potential benefits are demonstrated. Previously, a theoretical HBGR model, version 1.0, has been developed, outlining its essential components. However, clear guidance on the practical design and organisation …

Key summary points Aim To reach consensus on terminology, organisational aspects, and outcome domains of geriatric rehabilitation for older people living at home. Findings In three rounds, an international panel reached a consensus regarding the term “home-based geriatric rehabilita tion” to distinguish …

PURPOSE: To gain a rich understanding of the experiences and opinions of patients, healthcare professionals, and policymakers regarding the design of OGR with structure, process, environment, and outcome components.
