Current practice was mainly characterized by an individual, face-to-face orientation and mobility training session concerning three components: crystallizing client\u2019s needs, providing information and training skills. A weakness was the lack of a (structured) protocol based on evidence or theory.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>New theory-driven training:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A new training protocol comprising two face-to-face sessions and one telephone follow-up was developed.
