Background • In Norway the number of people with the age 65+ years will increase to 1.4 million until 2050 (Statistics Norway, 2012) • Most of them are singles, females and with at least one physical or nonphysical disability (WHO 2010) • A decrease in self care abilities is the major predictor to move in a nursing home for Norwegians in the age 75+ (Bruyneel 2008) • Telephone based self-care talks are effective to improve the self-care ability in people 75+ (Sundsli 2013)
Intervention • Self-care intervention program based on the model of Teel (2005) among individuals 75+ • Core content of talks: practicing healthy habits, building self-esteem, focusing on the positive, avoiding role overload, communicating, building meaning (Teel 2005) • Operationalisation • Public health nurses after a specialized training program (3 days) • 1 coordinating public health nurse for every health center (1 day additional training). • Prioritized to the risk factors age and living alone, the people will be called first time • 6 talks in 3 months at 6 months
Facilitators and barriers of the intervention • Training program is based on the social learning theory – Attention, Retention, Reproduction, Motivation (Bandura 1989)
