Experiences of the Redesigning Daily Occupation programme - a qualitative study among persons with neurological diseases.
Scandinavian Journal of Occupational Therapy 2024 January
BACKGROUND: The Redesigning Daily Occupations (ReDO) is a programme targeting persons who need to restructure activities and routines to achieve a healthier balance in everyday life. Issues that often is needed for persons with neurological diseases.
AIMS/OBJECTIVES: To describe how persons with neurological disease experienced the ReDo-programme and to investigate how their occupational patterns and fatigue changed during the programme.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: A mixed method study with a convergent parallel design including ten participants. Questionnaires and individual semi-structured interviews have been used and data analysed by descriptive statistics and thematic analysis.
RESULTS: The findings indicated an increased participation in everyday life after the intervention. Furthermore, the main theme showed that the intervention enabled reflections and new insight. Sub-themes included: feeling pressured to perform, being part of a group and changing occupational pattern.
CONCLUSIONS: Participants valued being a group; however, they experienced the intensity as being too high. The content of the intervention enabled reflections and new insights regarding their occupational pattern, which was experienced as a starting point towards behavioural changes and re-prioritisation of occupations in everyday life.
SIGNIFICANCE: A modified version with lower intensity and careful goal setting might be valuable for persons with neurological diseases.
