Abstract: Employs a qualitative descriptive approach to examine the feasibility of health care assistants’ participation in rehabilitation for older people. Enrols health care assistants in focus groups before and after a mobility programme for inpatients promoting independence and functional rehabilitation. Involves ten in-patients who had sustained a fractured neck of femur in the functional exercises with the health care assistants. Analyses the interview data thematically.
