HotShOT: Home Safety Occupational Therapy

Withdrawn before enrolling · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Hip Replacement

In brief

The purpose of this research study is to examine home safety and fall risk for patients who have undergone hip replacement surgery. The investigators want to know whether evaluating home safety impacts perceived and real risk of falls at home. The study will utilize a fall risk assessment which is a questionnaire that focuses on perceived and real risk of falls at home, as well as a home safety assessment application, the Home for Life App. The participant will be asked about the home environment, including areas of the home such as the entrance, bedroom, and bathroom, and modification recommendations will be made to potentially increase safety.
