“…Home safety assessment and intervention are a documented as well as recognized rehabilitation service in certain sectors (for example, for individuals suffering from a loss of autonomy following a physical or cognitive health condition), as evidenced by the substantial occupational therapy literature and tools on the topic (Désormeaux-Moreau et al., 2015). This is much less the case in the field of psychosocial and psychiatric rehabilitation, where services are not always offered in an interdisciplinary context and where occupational therapists may be less present (at least, this is the case in the province of Canada, where this study is based).…”

“…At the time of this study, no comprehensive tool was available for the assessment of home safety of people with mental illness (Désormeaux-Moreau et al., 2015). The Évaluation de la sécurité à domicile et de la gestion des risques (ESGR) (Désormeaux-Moreau et al., 2015) was a promising tool that was developed to meet this need. However, it solely relied on an understanding of home-based risks as perceived by service providers or researchers, and had not yet included the perspective of persons with mental illness.…”

Introduction: People with severe mental illness benefit from a growing number of measures aimed at supporting independent housing. The purpose of the study was to develop a comprehensive home safety assessment tool. Method: The tool's elaboration was done in three phases. The planning phase was intended to circumscribe the phenomenon, providing input for the development phase, which consisted of creating and enhancing the tool's prototypes. The evaluation phase then featured the tool's translation validity (relevance, exhaustiveness, clarity, and apparent clinical utility), with four successive rounds of expert consultation (n ¼ 20). Changes were made to the tool according to the experts' suggestions. Findings: The proposed tool, SÉCuRE, adopts a structured professional judgment approach that is designed to be used collaboratively and interprofessionally, with a specific role for occupational therapists. It aims to systematize the assessment of contributive factors (risk and protective), all stakeholders' expectations and needs and the identification of potential ethical issues. The findings supported the translation validity and acceptance of the tool by clinicians. Conclusion: SÉCuRE was developed to assist with clinical judgment regarding home safety interventions. It is hoped that its use may ultimately foster home safety in the context of recovery.

Background Although assistive technology for cognition (ATC) has enormous potential to help individuals who have sustained a severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) prepare meals safely, no ATC has yet been developed to assist in this activity for this specific population. Objective This study aims to conduct a needs analysis as a first step in the design of an ATC to support safe and independent meal preparation for persons with severe TBI. This included identifying cooking-related risks to depict future users’ profiles and establishing the clinical requirements of the ATC. Methods In a user-centered design study, the needs of 3 future users were evaluated in their real-world environments (supported-living residence) using an ecological assessment of everyday activities, a review of their medical files, a complete neuropsychological test battery, individual interviews, observational field notes, and log journals with the residents, their families, and other stakeholders from the residence (eg, staff and health professionals). The needs analysis was guided by the Disability Creation Process framework. Results The results showed that many issues had to be considered for the development of the ATC for the 3 residents and other eventual users, including cognitive issues such as distractibility and difficulty remembering information over a short period of time and important safety issues, such as potential food poisoning and risk of fire. This led to the identification of 2 main clinical requirements for the ATC: providing cognitive support based on evidence-based cognitive rehabilitation to facilitate meal preparation and ensuring safety at each step of the meal preparation task. Conclusions This needs analysis identified the main requirements for an ATC designed to support meal preparation for persons with severe TBI. Future research will focus on implementing the ATC in the residence and evaluating its usability.
