Medicare beneficiaries admitted to home health agencies are often in a frail status with decreased muscle strength and difficulty in performing activities of daily living. The purpose of the proposed research is to study how to adapt and implement the 3-Step Workout for Life program by the physical therapists and occupational therapists in a local home health agency. A series of learning cycles will be conducted to adjust the treatment dose and delivery mode, so that the program can be implemented at low cost but remains effective in improving self-care ability for Medicare beneficiaries. The specific aims include to evaluate the implementation outcomes and clinical outcomes, and to identify facilitators and barriers associated with the implementation.
