In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this mixed-methods research is to investigate the impact of interprofessional education on the professional development and clinical skills of nursing and physiotherapy students who provide home-based care to older adults in Hong Kong. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is an interprofessional home-based digital frailty management program feasible for training nursing and physiotherapy students ? 2. Can the training enhance students' skills in providing holistic, home-based care, interprofessional teamwork and communication? 3. Can the training improve elderly health awareness, behavior, and outcomes? The study will involve 50 students from Hong Kong Metropolitan University, including nursing and physiotherapy students in clinical placement courses. Approximately 100 older adults with mild health conditions, living in home-based community settings, will take part
