Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The PI and two study staff members (interventionists) will conduct study visits and phone calls. The same person will complete participant follow-ups to establish rapport and consistency. All of the study encounters will be audio recorded with participants' permission and study encounter notes will be completed by the interventionist. Interventionists will facilitate MI sessions using the MI guide and a participant handout. The goal of each MI session is to identify a specific fall prevention behavior, the participant's goal with this behavior, readiness to change, specific plan to move toward the goal, barriers and facilitators, and the participant's commitment level to change.
