However, this information is not consistently shared with those professionals who provide services in the client's home. In this pilot study, we examined the feasibility of sharing data, from the RAI-HC, between care coordinators and service providers.</AbstractText><AbstractText Label="METHODS" NlmCategory="METHODS">All participants were involved in a one-day training session on the RAI-HC. The care coordinators shared specific outputs from the RAI-HC, including the embedded health index scales, with their contracted physiotherapy and occupational therapy service providers. Two focus groups were held, one with care coordinators (n&#x2009;=&#x2009;4) and one with contracted service providers (n&#x2009;=&#x2009;6). They were asked for their opinions on the positive aspects of the project and areas for improvement.</AbstractText><AbstractText Label="RESULTS" NlmCategory="RESULTS">The focus groups revealed a number of positive outcomes related to the project including the use of a falls prevention brochure and an increased level of communication between professionals. The participants also cited multiple areas for improvement related to data sharing (e.g., time constraints, data being sent in a timely fashion) and to their standard practices in the community (e.g., busy workloads, difficulties in data sharing, duplication of assessments between professionals).</AbstractText><AbstractText Label="CONCLUSIONS" NlmCategory="CONCLUSIONS">Home care professionals were able to share select pieces of information generated from the RAI-HC system and this project enhanced the level of communication between the two groups of professionals. However, a single information session was not adequate training for the rehabilitation professionals, who do not use the RAI-HC as part of normal practice. Better education, ongoing support and timely access to the RAI-HC data are some ways to improve the usefulness of this information for busy home care providers.</AbstractText></Abstract><AuthorList CompleteYN="Y"><Author ValidYN="Y"><LastName>Guthrie</LastName><ForeName>Dawn M</ForeName><Initials>DM</Initials><AffiliationInfo><Affiliation>Department of Kinesiology and Physical Education, Wilfrid Laurier University, 75 University Ave, W, Waterloo, ON N2L 3C5, Canada. dguthrie@wlu.ca.</Affiliation></AffiliationInfo></Author><Author ValidYN="Y"><LastName>Pitman</LastName><ForeName>Robyn</ForeName><Initials>R</Initials></Author><Author ValidYN="Y"><LastName>Fletcher</LastName><ForeName>Paula C</ForeName><Initials>PC</Initials></Author><Author ValidYN="Y"><LastName>Hirdes</LastName><ForeName>John P</ForeName><Initials>JP</Initials></Author><Author ValidYN="Y"><LastName>Stolee</LastName><ForeName>Paul</ForeName><Initials>P</Initials></Author><Author ValidYN="Y"><LastName>Poss</LastName><ForeName>Jeffrey W</ForeName><Initials>JW</Initials></Author><Author ValidYN="Y"><LastName>Papaioannou</LastName><ForeName>Alexandra</ForeName><Initials>A</Initials></Author><Author ValidYN="Y"><LastName>Berg</LastName><ForeName>Katherine</ForeName><Initials>K</Initials></Author><Author ValidYN="Y"><LastName>Ezekiel</LastName><ForeName>Helen Janzen</ForeName><Initials>HJ</Initials></Author></AuthorList><Language>eng</Language><GrantList CompleteYN="Y"><Grant><GrantID>88225-1</GrantID><Agency>Canadian Institutes of Health Research</Agency><Country>Canada</Country></Grant></GrantList><PublicationTypeList><PublicationType UI="D016428">Journal Article</PublicationType><PublicationType UI="D013485">Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't</PublicationType></PublicationTypeList><ArticleDate DateType="Electronic"><Year>2014</Year><Month>06</Month><Day>30</Day></ArticleDate></Article><MedlineJournalInfo><Country>England</Country><MedlineTA>BMC Geriatr</MedlineTA><NlmUniqueID>100968548</NlmUniqueID><ISSNLinking>1471-2318</ISSNLinking></MedlineJournalInfo><CitationSubset>IM</CitationSubset><MeshHeadingList><MeshHeading><DescriptorName UI="D003142" MajorTopicYN="Y">Communication</DescriptorName></MeshHeading><MeshHeading><DescriptorName UI="D005240" MajorTopicYN="N">Feasibility Studies</DescriptorName></MeshHeading><MeshHeading><DescriptorName UI="D005260" MajorTopicYN="N">Female</DescriptorName></MeshHeading><MeshHeading><DescriptorName UI="D017144" MajorTopicYN="N">Focus Groups</DescriptorName></MeshHeading><MeshHeading><DescriptorName UI="D006282" MajorTopicYN="N">Health Personnel</DescriptorName><QualifierName UI="Q000592" MajorTopicYN="Y">standards</QualifierName></MeshHeading><MeshHeading><DescriptorName UI="D006699" MajorTopicYN="N">Home Care Services</DescriptorName><QualifierName UI="Q000592" MajorTopicYN="Y">standards</QualifierName></MeshHeading><MeshHeading><DescriptorName UI="D006801" MajorTopicYN="N">Humans</DescriptorName></MeshHeading><MeshHeading><DescriptorName UI="D033181" MajorTopicYN="N">Information Dissemination</DescriptorName><QualifierName UI="Q000379" MajorTopicYN="Y">methods</QualifierName></MeshHeading><MeshHeading><DescriptorName UI="D008297" MajorTopicYN="N">Male</DescriptorName></MeshHeading><MeshHeading><DescriptorName UI="D008875" MajorTopicYN="N">Middle Aged</DescriptorName></MeshHeading><MeshHeading><DescriptorName UI="D009864" MajorTopicYN="N" Type="Geographic">Ontario</DescriptorName></MeshHeading><MeshHeading><DescriptorName UI="D010865" MajorTopicYN="N">Pilot Projects</DescriptorName></MeshHeading></MeshHeadingList></MedlineCitation><PubmedData><History><PubMedPubDate PubStatus="received"><Year>2013</Year><Month>9</Month><Day>23</Day></PubMedPubDate><PubMedPubDate PubStatus="accepted"><Year>2014</Year><Month>6</Month><Day>20</Day></PubMedPubDate><PubMedPubDate PubStatus="entrez"><Year>2014</Year><Month>7</Month><Day>1</Day><Hour>6</Hour><Minute>0</Minute></PubMedPubDate><PubMedPubDate PubStatus="pubmed"><Year>2014</Year><Month>7</Month><Day>1</Day><Hour>6</Hour><Minute>0</Minute></PubMedPubDate><PubMedPubDate PubStatus="medline"><Year>2014</Year><Month>10</Month><Day>10</Day><Hour>6</Hour><Minute>0</Minute></PubMedPubDate><PubMedPubDate PubStatus="pmc-release"><Year>2014</Year><Month>6</Month><Day>30</Day></PubMedPubDate></History><PublicationStatus>epublish</PublicationStatus><ArticleIdList><ArticleId IdType="pubmed">24975375</ArticleId><ArticleId IdType="pmc">PMC4083131</ArticleId><ArticleId IdType="doi">10.1186/1471-2318-14-81</ArticleId><ArticleId IdType="pii">1471-2318-14-81</ArticleId></ArticleIdList><ReferenceList><Reference><Citation>Canadian Institute for Health Information.
