Workshops
| Workshop | Date | Participants | Focus/Aim/Contents | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| I | 5 March 2017 | Health professionals | Discussions on potential intervention components. The participating health professionals suggested 15 intervention components | 15 intervention components were considered too comprehensive. Therefore, a modified Delphi method was undertaken by the research team |
| II | 20 September 2017 | Patients and relatives | Discussions on potential intervention components. Patients and relatives were presented with the preliminary intervention developed in workshop I, and some of the components were excluded. The participants suggested 28 components for the intervention, including components suggested by health professionals from workshop I | A Delphi method similar to the one held after workshop I was performed by the research team. Based on this, ten interventions components were identified |
| III | 5 December 2017 | Health professionals and managers (same as in workshop 1) | The preliminary ten-component intervention was presented. Also, the process of inclusion and exclusion of components was presented along with quotes from patients and relatives to ensure that the patients' voices were heard and to acknowledge patients, relatives and health professionals as experts in their own lives and work situations | Finally, consensus was reached about seven components: a walk path; the physicians prescribe walk plans; independent collection of clothes and beverages; posters and a welcome folder encouraging patients to walk and exercise; after discharge, patients with a walking plan, who are discharged with a rehabilitation plan, will be contacted by phone by a municipal therapist; after discharge, patients with a walking plan, who are discharged without a rehabilitation plan but receive home care, will be contacted by phone by home health care personnel |
| IV | 31 May 2018 | Health professionals, the research team and a graphic designer | During the workshop, the health professionals and managers were asked to discuss barriers and facilitators for all ten components until consensus was reached. The final intervention consisted of seven components to be tested in the departments | The drafts for the walking path, the walking plans and the posters were sent to the patients and relatives who participated in workshop II to give them an opportunity to comment on the design of these components. Four of ten responded with the consequence that the red colour on one of the walking plans was darkened, and the text on the posters was enlarged to make it more readable for older patients |

Note(s): The graphic designer's role was to collaborate with the participants on the design of all objects that were part of the intervention, e.g. ensuring that the colours of the walking path and the chairs adhered to regulations, ensuring that the chairs were of the correct size, helping in the development of posters and walking plans and providing graphic inspiration on the design of the walking path. The municipality was not able to participate in the workshops because they had to prioritize their resources for the implementation of a new information technology (IT) system. Therefore, MMP and JWK met with the participants from the municipality to discuss decisions from workshop IV and agreement was reached on the components involving the municipality
