Scores on the scale are summated and higher scores indicate greater self-efficacy.Measuring general self-efficacy can provide a way to evaluate the effectiveness of empowerment interventions.

Interventions

Intervention group BEHAVIORAL

A structured assessment is conducted using the Omaha system. Problems will be identified in the four domains which include environment, psychosocial, physiological and health-related behavior. According to the identified problems, the nurse case manager and older adults will set contract goals and formulate an individual care plan. The nurse case manager will provide information on the basic knowledge of participants' own chronic illnesses; recognition, measurement and management of the early signs and symptoms of a deterioration or exacerbation of diseases; and the importance of health-promoting and self-care activities. A booklet will be given to them for easy reference and act as a reminder to consolidate the knowledge in case the important concepts are forgotten.
