Co-design fall strategies
Co-design fall strategies
Co-design fall-injury prevention interventions and implementation strategies
Implementing supported referral to community-based fall prevention exercise into osteoporosis clinics
Researcher Dr Juliana S Oliveira (Postdoctoral Research Fellow)
Rationale
The Agency for Clinical Innovation (ACI) have rolled out over 30 Osteoporosis Re-fracture Prevention (ORP) programs across NSW
The new ORP model of care initiative provides a unique opportunity to implement a systematic but tailored approach to the promotion of fall prevention exercise
Currently, these services focus more on medication prescription than referral to exercise for fall prevention.
Aims
Explore barriers and enablers for referral and access to evidence-based fall prevention exercise across ORP clinics
Develop a tailored implementation strategy to support clinicians to implement referral pathways into daily practice
