IntroductionIntegrating collaborative reablement into adult day services (ADS) presents new challenges. Exploring the perspectives of service providers is essential for gaining deeper insights into this innovative approach.Materials and MethodsA qualitative study was conducted through focus group interviews with service providers in central Taiwan. The Canadian Interprofessional Health Collaborative (CIHC) Framework guided the analysis, focusing on role clarity, collaborative leadership, team functioning, communication, person-centered care, and conflict resolution.Results and DiscussionCare workers initially struggled with reablement but improved through training and collaboration with therapists, who benefited from the workers' observations. Standardized assessments, reviews, and open communication strengthened teamwork. Nonverbal strategies fostered peer-driven participation, and patient-centered care was enhanced through home visits and family involvement. This study highlights challenges in implementing the collaborative reablement-ADS model, emphasizing the importance of training, teamwork, and interprofessional collaboration to enhance care quality and outcomes.ConclusionsIn conclusion, this study provides valuable insights that targeted interventions, including ongoing training, enhanced interprofessional communication, and a focus on patient-centered care, are crucial for effectively addressing the initial challenges inherent in the collaborative reablement-ADS model.
