With the growing ageing population in Malaysia and the increasing cost in healthcare, assessing patients’ active and healthy states have been recommended by World Health Organization in evaluating the performance of the health recovery system among older adults. However, previous studies on rehabilitation services were 1) mainly conceptual and, 2) limited in number as only empirical articles related to hospital management. The purpose of this study is to investigate the antecedents that promote the credibility and the intention to recover among older adults in Malaysia. The study reviews past literature and suggests the antecedents of 1) Health Consciousness, 2) Participation, 3) Financial Security, 4) Physical Environment and 5) Online Learning. The study uses survey research, by adopting previously used questionnaires, to determine the relationships between the stated variables. The data will be collected, analysed, and interpreted via 1) Descriptive analysis, 2) confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). |
