A scoping review exploring reablement models of training and client assessment for older people in primary health care.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

The aim of this scoping review is to explore the evidence by which community service providers have integrated reablement models of staff training and client assessment into practice.

Background

The concept of reablement, which has emerged during the last two decades globally, has recently been defined by health experts from 11 countries through a Delphi study. Reablement is seen as a way to support integrated frameworks that achieve person-centred, long-term care and assistance across community settings. International research indicates there is some evidence of developing models of reablement that include staff training and individual components of client assessment. However, evidence of integrating reablement into interdisciplinary practice continues to be sparse.
