Applicability was comparatively lower for budget planning and for developing\/implementing automation scenarios. Interviews indicated that cost constraints and technical complexity reduced feasibility, whereas OT-led goal prioritization, partial automation, simplification of operational steps, context-based training, and caregiver-inclusive education supported adoption. Revisits were most commonly linked to predictable maintenance events (e.g., unplugged power, device resets, battery depletion), underscoring the need for platform-based self-management resources and a triage pathway separating clinical OT tasks from technical support.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions and Relevance<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>OT-led SHM shows strong clinical utility in community practice when delivered through occupation-centered assessment, tailored training, and iterative refinement.
