Senior meetings
The intervention will be led by professionals such as a registered occupational therapist, a nurse, a physical therapist, and a social worker. The intervention will comprise four weekly meetings in small groups (4-6 participants) in addition to an individual follow-up home visit two to three weeks after the last senior meeting. To use groups involve the possibility of peer education where participants in a person-centeredness perspective are seen as experts on their own situation and learn from each other. The relationship between the personnel and the participants in the senior meetings can be described as a partnership. Respect for the participant and his/her values, and that the participant gets an opportunity to maintain and develop their own power over their own everyday activities will be essential in the meeting.
