What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This pilot study will evaluate the feasibility of a supplemental mobility intervention, the Safe Transfers And Mobility Program (STAMP). This program will be implemented in patients admitted to skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) following hospitalization. STAMP will be administered by a mobility aide who will support patients in increasing physical activity through walking and transfers outside of structured rehabilitation. Participants will either receive high-intensity rehabilitation (HIR) or usual care rehabilitation, combined with STAMP. The two main aims are: 1) determine the feasibility, acceptability, and safety of STAMP, and 2) evaluate the feasibility and variability of patient physical function outcome measures. The study will provide preliminary data on program delivery and safety to inform the design of a larger trial aimed at identifying the most effective strategies to optimize functional recovery in SNFs.

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?

This trial is for older adults who have recently been hospitalized and are now staying in a skilled nursing facility to recover from medical issues or weakness. Participants should be able to take part in physical activity programs.

Inclusion Criteria

Admitted to SNF from the hospital
I can walk with little or no help.
I am at least 50 years old.

Exclusion Criteria

I need significant help walking because of weight-bearing limits on my legs.
I have been admitted to a skilled nursing facility after my initial care.
I do not have any medical reasons preventing me from doing high-intensity resistance exercise.

What Are the Treatments Tested in This Trial?

Interventions

  • High Intensity Rehabilitation
  • Safe Transfers and Mobility Program (STAMP)
  • Usual Care

Trial Overview

The study is testing whether adding a mobility program called STAMP, which helps patients walk and move more outside of regular rehab sessions, is practical and safe. Patients will get either high-intensity rehab or usual care, both with the added STAMP program.
