Occupational therapy practitioners' perspectives on occupation-based interventions for clients with hip fracture.
This study identified perspectives of 18 occupational therapy practitioners on integrating occupation-based interventions during postacute care (PAC) rehabilitation for persons with hip fracture to identify occupational therapy's distinct contribution. The study concluded that identifying practitioners' perspectives on integrating occupation into rehabilitation may inform strategies to facilitate occupation-based interventions in PAC and define occupational therapy's role in this setting.

Delivering high quality hip fracture rehabilitation: the perspective of occupational and physical therapy practitioners.
This study aimed to identify rehabilitation practitioners' perspectives on the practices that constitute high quality hip fracture rehabilitation. The investigators suggest that guidelines are critical tools to facilitate clinical decision-making and achieve desired patient outcomes. The authors suggest that future research is needed to verify the findings from other stakeholders (e.g., patients), ensure the alignment of our findings with current evidence, and develop measures for evaluating their delivery and relationship to desired outcomes.

Clinicians' perspectives of patient engagement in post-acute care: a social ecological approach.
The purpose of this study was to identify rehabilitation providers' perspectives on barriers and facilitators of patient engagement in hip fracture patients in skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) within the social ecological model. Clinicians identified barriers and facilitators of patient engagement across all levels of the social ecological model: public policy (e.g., insurance), organizational (e.g., facility culture), interpersonal (e.g., clinicians fostering self-reflection), and intrapersonal (e.g., patients' anxiety).

An examination of the first 30 days after patients are discharged to the community from hip fracture postacute care.
This study examined the percentage of PAC patients who remain in the community at least 30 days after discharge (i.e., successful community discharge) after hip fracture rehabilitation and described differences among PAC facilities based on this outcome. It found that between 1999 and 2007, 57 percent of patients achieved successful community discharge. Black were less likely than similar whites to achieve successful community discharge.
