SPARK
The SPARK program is person directed and will consist of 8 nurse visits during which the nurse assesses each participant for pain, depression and frailty and then implements a manualized individually tailored intervention. Participants will be randomized into either the intervention or the wait list control group. Once the intervention group has completed the intervention group's visits, the wait list control group will begin the waitlist control group's visits. All participants will all be offered the same information and format of nurse visits. The nurses will systematically tailor the content of the visits to the participants' risk profile and goals based on protocols. All participants will be assessed at the start of the study, at 12 weeks and 24 weeks.
