Area of Science:

  • Occupational therapy
  • Home healthcare
  • Workplace safety

Background:

  • Home health aides (HHAs) provide essential support to clients in their homes.
  • The physical challenges and injury risks HHAs face are not well understood.
  • There is a potential role for occupational therapists (OTs) in mitigating these risks.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore HHAs' daily experiences and perceived physical challenges.
  • To identify specific tasks contributing to physical strain.
  • To assess the potential for OT-led injury prevention education for HHAs.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative descriptive study utilizing semistructured phone interviews.
  • Data analyzed using Colaizzi's descriptive phenomenological method.
  • Eight female HHAs aged 35-65 participated.

Main Results:

  • HHAs emphasized client-centered care and assisting with activities of daily living.
  • Client transfers were identified as the most physically demanding task.
  • Participants highlighted the need for training in patient positioning, adaptive equipment, and lifting techniques.

Conclusions:

  • Occupational therapists possess skills that align with HHAs' needs for injury prevention.
  • OTs can serve as valuable educators for home care agencies.
  • Collaborative training can enhance HHA safety and client care.
