Care home versus hospital and own home environments for rehabilitation of older people

Re-braiding the Strands of Life through Community Rehabilitation, Home Care, and Informal Support: A Longitudinal Collective Case Study

“…Families also observed that some services could be a "little more flexible". Home-based rehabilitation was valued by the participants, in support of other research that demonstrated home-based rehabilitation was as effective as hospital-based rehabilitation (Parker et al, 2011;Ward, Drahota, Gal, Severs, & Dean, 2008). Family-and person-centred care for older adults have been investigated in terms of health care decision making (Wolff & Boyd, 2015).…”

Key Intervention Categories to Provide Person-Centered Dementia Care: A Systematic Review of Person-Centered Interventions

“…Two recent systematic reviews [88, 89] focused their research on needs of PlwD and registered nurses’ experiences with PCC in the hospital setting. As there is an aim by policy makers to move care delivery to the home [90] and many aged people prefer to receive care at home [91], this setting should find greater consideration in future investigations about PCC and PC-interventions. Aside from the home/primary care setting, future research may want to consider a greater focus on hospital settings with particular focus on assessment of patients’ needs and training for staff.…”

Nutrition in adolescents: physiology, metabolism, and nutritional needs

“…2 For a lactating mother, her micronutrient status determines the health and development of her breast-fed infant, especially during the first 6 months of life. 47,48 Nutrient needs during pregnancy and lactation are higher relative to other physiological stages in the life cycle and, likewise, the requirements for most micronutrients are also higher. Findings from a recent systematic review suggest that interventions to improve the nutritional status of pregnant women result in a statistically significant improvement in mean birth weight (SMD: 0.25; 95% CI: 0.08-0.41), reduced LBW (birth weight < 2500 g; RR: 0.70; 95% CI: 0.57-0.84), and preterm birth (before 37 weeks; RR: 0.73; 95% CI: 0.57-0.95).…”
