ICOPE Training Programme
Field testing version
Objectives
Target audience
Learning outcomes
After the ICOPE training programme, participants are expected to:
- Understand the global context to promote the re-orientation and integration of care services for older persons,
- Describe the different aspects of the ICOPE approach (e.g., rationale, care pathways, delivery of person-centred interventions) in primary health care,
- Integrate and apply the ICOPE instruments and recommendations into primary health care practice,
- Possess the foundations to adapt the ICOPE approach to the local context of primary health care,
- Have a core of information on how to serve as trainers in the ICOPE approach for the care workforce.
The ICOPE training programme specifically focuses on supporting the implementation of the ICOPE approach at the primary health care level. One of the significant issues faced in implementing the ICOPE approach is represented by the different care systems and their readiness to shift towards more integrated approaches. For this reason, this online material should be completed by in-person discussions focused on the possible adaptations of the ICOPE approach to the local context (i.e., priorities, needs and values of older persons, and characteristics of the available services and systems).
This material also includes a specific module to support the training of trainers in the ICOPE approach (Module 19), to facilitate its dissemination.
