SEIPS 2.0 adaptation for in-hospital mobility intervention. According to the SEIPS 2.0 model, mobility, like all hospital outcomes, influenced by specific work systems and processes. The process of in-hospital mobility conducted by “Professional work”, “Collaborative Professional” and “Patients–Family work” includes understanding how, by whom, and under what conditions mobility is initiated or suppressed, documented, communicated, and reported. The process of in-hospital mobility depends on the Work system comprising six interacting components: the person, encompassing patients, their families, and the medical team comprising of their preferences, goals, needs, knowledge, and attitudes; the task comprising difficulties, complexity, ambiguity, and sequences as well as measurable characteristics (distance, step count); tools & technology– mobility equipment, distance assessment; organizational factors – including barriers & strength; environment (internal: unit level; external: hospital level) – goals, policies, documentation, written and spoken rules, and procedures related to patients’ in-hospital mobility.
