Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to determine which of the following four service models is most effective for reducing fall risk among home-delivered meal clients 1 meals alone 2 meals registered dietitian services 3 meals occupational therapy services 4 meals registered dietitian occupational therapy services
Detailed Description:
Home delivered meal programs provide essential health and nutritional support to community-dwelling older adults in the United States Without this support nearly three million older adults would be at even greater risk for malnourishment and subsequent health decline leading to potential hospitalizations and nursing home placements Despite the reported value of home delivered meals the increasingly complex health needs of the older adult population warrant new innovative approaches that enhance home-delivered meal services In our prior work we identified that the majority of home delivered meal clients are at high risk for malnutrition increasing clients risk of falling and warranting the need for registered dietitian services to attenuate health decline Additionally our other work has identified that 80 of home delivered meal clients are at elevated risk for falling6 and over 40 have experienced a fall in the past year The high prevalence of fall risk factors among home delivered clients suggests that additional services - such as occupational therapy - are also needed to optimize clients ability to safely remain living in their own homes and communities In response to home delivered meal clients need for more enhanced and specialized services the present study will test four different service models to determine which model is most effective for reducing fall-related outcomes
