Supplemental Mobility

This pilot study will evaluate the feasibility of a supplemental mobility intervention, the Safe Transfers And Mobility Program (STAMP). This program will be implemented in patients admitted to skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) following hospitalization. STAMP will be administered by a mobility aide who will support patients in increasing physical activity through walking and transfers outside of structured rehabilitation. Participants will either receive high-intensity rehabilitation (HIR) or usual care rehabilitation, combined with STAMP. The two main aims are: 1) determine the feasibility, acceptability, and safety of STAMP, and 2) evaluate the feasibility and variability of patient physical function outcome measures. The study will provide preliminary data on program delivery and safety to inform the design of a larger trial aimed at identifying the most effective strategies to optimize functional recovery in SNFs.
