*2.2. Data Collection*

Data were collected by occupational therapists during home visits before the start of the HA. The home visit took approximately 90 min and the data collection included both self-assessments and observations by means of standardized instruments and study specific questions. In two municipalities, the occupational therapists employed by the municipality gathered the data, and in one, the occupational therapist was employed by the project. They were especially trained in the

methodology applied to the study to uniform the data collection process [19]. Data collection at baseline took place between March 2013 and December 2015.
