Abstract | Examined effectiveness of a comprehensive discharge planning protocol in a double-blind study with 80 acute care patients age 75 and older. According to functional status measures, placement at 2 and 4 weeks post-discharge was deemed appropriate for 87 percent of all patients. Length of hospital stay was reduced for treatment group patients. (Author/ABL) |
