Abstrakt: [Purpose] This study examined the effectiveness of active learning-based transfer movement training provided to caregivers by physical therapists. [Participants and Methods] This study enrolled 29 participants (age: 47.0 ± 10.1 years, 22 female participants) working at a residential care home. The participants were shown a video in which caregivers experienced difficulty in transferring a patient; this was followed by group discussions. To verify the effectiveness of this educational intervention, a questionnaire including six items related to reducing the burden on caregivers, daily living care, and rehabilitation was administered to the participants at three time points (before training, three days after training, and one month after training). Multiple comparisons were performed, and the effect size (r) was calculated. [Results] Significant differences were observed between the responses obtained before training and three days after training and between the responses obtained before training and one month after training for all six items. The effect sizes (r) after three days and one month of training were above 0.6 for all six items. [Conclusion] The training improved the assessment skills of caregivers, and its effects persisted after one month, suggesting the effectiveness of active learning-based transfer movement training.
