Studies of these rehabilitation programmes for older people in general-, orthopedic- and stroke rehabilitation report higher long-term levels of independence [ 8, 29, 33- 35] and lower long-term levels of institutionalization [ 8, 33, 35] and mortality [ 8, 29, 35, 36].
By creating a dataset of adaptation projects, we examine transnational adaptation governance in terms of its scope, institutionalization and main functions.
Little or no difference has been found in terms of the success of institutionalization as compared to non-institutionalization.
Our analysis shows the low SVI score is particularly derived from an easier and better access to primary care, as well as a healthier group of elderly residents in terms of less disability and institutionalization.
Without an appropriate rehabilitation program in a short-term residential care setting, the decision of institutionalization is often made at the time of inpatient discharge.
Another major limitation of this study is the fact that the costs of institutionalization and long-term care were not included.
The remaining three studies assessed the impact of UI on long-term outcomes in stroke patients, including disability, rate of institutionalization, and mortality [ 29- 31].
On average, the length of institutionalization was 7.2±0.85 years, and all long-term care institutions had similar internal rules and environmental conditions.
Local initiation, local funding, long term commitment and ownership by all stakeholders are key determinants of institutionalization of capacities for BOD assessment.
Sustainability was characterized in terms of innovation continuation (i.e., institutionalization).
