description | Background Goal setting is an essential component of reablement programmes. At the same time it is also an important aspect in the evaluation of reablement from the perspective of clients.Objectives As part of the TRANS-SENIOR project, this research aims to get an in-depth insight of goal setting and goal attainment within reablement services from the perspective of the older person.Material and methods A convergent mixed methods design was used, combining data from electronic care files, and completed Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) forms with individual interviews.Results In total, 17 clients participated. Participants’ meaningful goals mainly focused on self-care, rather than leisure or productivity. This mattered most to them, since being independent in performing self-care tasks increased clients’ confidence and perseverance. Regarding goal attainment, a statistically significant and clinically relevant increase in self-perceived performance and satisfaction scores were observed.Conclusion Although most goals focused on self-care, it became apparent that these tasks matter to participants, especially because these often precede fundamental life goals.Significance Reablement can positively contribute to goal setting and attainment of clients and may contribute to increased independence. However, effectiveness, and subsequently long-term effects, are not yet accomplished and should be evaluated in future research. |
