Study Summary

The purpose of the study is to examine the feasibility of the program and data collection protocol to plan a multisite clinical trial. The program, "Stroll Safe", an outdoor fall prevention program, will take place in the lab space of the New York University occupational therapy department and in the surrounding neighborhood. Twenty-four people who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled after informed consent. Recruitment will include follow up with people who expressed interest in the fall prevention program during a survey study conducted by the PI, and interested members of community-based programs for seniors who have agreed to be community partners for this study. Twelve participants will be assigned to the 7-week program and 12 will receive written information on outdoor fall prevention (control group). The topics addressed in the once a week, 7-week outdoor falls prevention program, for which a treatment manual has been developed, are based on the results of a survey conducted of community dwelling older adults that identified gaps in knowledge and use of prevention strategies, and the related literature. The program includes pre-set modules, however, participants will be able to voice individual concerns and problem-solve solutions during group discussions. Using an ecological perspective, the Health Belief Model, and problem solving theory as a guide, the intervention will include a didactic component, group problem solving, practical application of strategies, and self-advocacy regarding reporting problems to the city. Analysis will primarily focus on process measures.Post-intervention, semi-structures interviews will be conducted and analyzed to assess strengths/limitations of the program and participant's attribution of any behavioral changes to the intervention. Although statistical significant is not anticipated in this small feasibility study, repeated measures ANOVA will be used to examine changes in Falls Efficacy Scale-International (FES-I
