Description of intervention(s) / exposure
BEHAVIORAL - RESILIENCE Program

No intervention: Standard Care Group - Participants will receive the standard care provided by their institution.

Active comparator: RESILIENCE Program group - Participants will receive the RESILIENCE Program on top of the standard care provided by their institution.


BEHAVIORAL: RESILIENCE Program
In addition to the standard care participants would normally receive (including exposure to any standard hospital avoidance programs), the 150 participants assigned to the RESILIENCE Program group will receive a combination of strategies designed to promote seasonal resilience.

This includes profiling of seasonal vulnerability; a 60-80 minute home visit by the RESILIENCE Nurse to assess physiological status, behavioural adaptations, environment, and modulating factors; a dedicated RESILIENCE Clinic with a dedicated RESILIENCE physician to develop a long-term plan to help promote/maintain seasonal resilience and; a structured follow-up over the next 12 months to monitor and adjust the participant's status and management from a seasonal perspective.
