Respite care. Medical search

Patient care provided in the home or institution intermittently in order to provide temporary relief to the family home care giver.

Nursing care given to an individual in the home. The care may be provided by a family member or a friend. Home nursing as care by a non-professional is differentiated from HOME CARE SERVICES provided by professionals: visiting nurse, home health agencies, hospital, or other organized community group.

Specialized residences for persons who do not require full hospitalization, and are not well enough to function completely within the community without professional supervision, protection and support.

Persons who provide care to those who need supervision or assistance in illness or disability. They may provide the care in the home, in a hospital, or in an institution. Although caregivers include trained medical, nursing, and other health personnel, the concept also refers to parents, spouses, or other family members, friends, members of the clergy, teachers, social workers, fellow patients.

Services for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases in the aged and the maintenance of health in the elderly.

Older adults or aged individuals who are lacking in general strength and are unusually susceptible to disease or to other infirmity.

Core guidelines for the discharge home of the child on long-term assisted ventilation in the United Kingdom. UK Working Party on Paediatric Long Term Ventilation. (1/39)

Paediatric home ventilation is a feasible option and can be successful in a wide range of conditions and ages. Advances in ventilator technology and an ethos of optimism for home care has increased the possibilities for discharging chronically ventilated children from intensive care units and acute medical beds. With careful planning the process can succeed, but difficulties often thwart the responsible team, especially when attempting discharge for the first time. These core guidelines aim to assist a smooth, swift and successful transfer. They were developed by a working party of interested professionals spanning a wide range of health care disciplines and represent a synthesis of views accumulated from the experiences of individual teams throughout the UK. Three case scenarios provide further illustrative detail and guidance. (+info)

Is respite care available for chronically ill seniors? (2/39)

OBJECTIVE: To determine family physicians' perceptions of how available respite care is and how easy it is to refer chronically ill older people to it, and to examine their opinions of respite care. DESIGN: Mailed survey to family physicians on the Thames Valley Family Practice Research Unit's mailing list. SETTING: London, Ont, and surrounding area. PARTICIPANTS: Of the 448 surveys mailed to eligible physicians, 288 were completed and returned for a response rate of 64.3%. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Respondents' perceptions of how available respite care is and how easy it is to refer chronically ill older people to it and their opinions on the effectiveness of respite care. RESULTS: More than half the respondents reported that outpatient respite care is always available, but how available depended on practice location. Inpatient respite care was reported as less available. More than half the respondents found referral to respite care difficult. Respondents were very positive about the role of respite services in long-term care and in lowering caregiver stress. Respondents' perceptions varied according to where they had attended medical school. Their perceptions of respite care's role in long-term care and in helping patients remain at home were influenced by whether they thought respite care was available. CONCLUSION: Family physicians need education in the value of respite services for their chronically ill older patients and their families. Physicians also need information on the respite services available and strategies for accessing them. Our findings suggest a need for greater attention to regional discrepancies in availability of services. (+info)

A practical guide to caring for caregivers. (3/39)

Patients who provide care to family members or friends with dementia are likely to be in a family physician's practice. The caregiver role can be stressful, and identifying these patients can give the family physician opportunities to help patients cope with the challenges of the caregiver role. Family physicians have a systematic approach for assessing the degree of caregiver burden in these patients. Because caregivers are at increased risk for depression and anxiety, screening should be done to exclude the presence of either disorder. The caregiver's skill in managing behavioral problems in the family member with dementia should be assessed. If there are problems, family physicians should provide practical counseling about common caregiving stresses and about resources that benefit caregivers. Helping the caregiver learn strategies for coping with difficulties may help reduce some of the stress the caregiver is experiencing. (+info)

Use of home health services covered by new public long-term care insurance in Japan: impact of the presence and kinship of family caregivers. (4/39)

OBJECTIVE: In April 2000, the system for caring for the elderly in Japan was changed drastically with the launch of new long-term care insurance. Unlike the previous system, the maximum monthly amount of insured services is now decided solely by an applicant's physical condition, regardless of family support. We investigated whether the presence and kinship of a family caregiver still affect service use under the new system. DESIGN: A cross-sectional, mailed, self-administered questionnaire survey and analysis using multiple logistic regression. SETTING: One month after the introduction of long-term care insurance in Japan. PARTICIPANTS: The main family caregivers of 237 applicants for long-term care insurance with a caregiver and 33 applicants without a caregiver, living in the community in one city. OUTCOME MEASURES: The applicants' sex, age, and eligible care level, existence of a family caregiver, family caregiver's sex, age, and kinship, and service use for each service covered by long-term care insurance. RESULTS: Caregiver factors significantly affected use of the main services. The most popular service, nursing-home daycare, was utilized most when a wife was caring for her husband. As the level of care increased, this service was utilized less. Home help, the second most popular service, was most utilized when a wife was caring for her husband or when there was no caregiver. CONCLUSION: The use of major services may be decided more by the needs of caregivers than by the care level of the applicant. To successfully implement the new system, consideration of the caregiver situation should be included in policy making. (+info)

A primary care-based needs assessment of people with multiple sclerosis. (5/39)

BACKGROUND: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a common cause of chronic progressive neurological disability where reduction in quality of life is an important feature. Many GPs have MS patients with a range of disabilities. Little is known about the supply of medical and community services and how this compares with demand. AIM: We aim to describe a community based sample of MS patients and investigate how disease characteristics, benefits, services accessed and perceived needs relate to sense of wellbeing. DESIGN: Cross-sectional survey. SETTING: Participants were recruited from a representative network of 30 GP practices across Northern Ireland. METHOD: MS patients answered a professionally administered questionnaire and agreed to their medical records being examined. Information was collected about their medical condition, sociodemographic characteristics, receipt of benefits and services, perceived needs and sense of wellbeing. RESULTS: Of the 149 participants, 23% were mildly affected (Kurtzke's Expanded Disability Status Scale [EDSS] 0-4.5), 41% were moderately disabled (EDSS 5.0-6.5) and 36% were severely disabled (EDSS 7.0-9.5). Disability was related to employment, receipt of benefits and services. Physiotherapy was a commonly perceived need. Other perceived needs differed between the moderately and severely disabled groups. Scores relating to wellbeing were related to disability and perceived needs. CONCLUSIONS: The relationship between use of medical and community services and disability is important for planning service provision. We have shown that perceived needs are related to wellbeing. In a progressive illness these developing needs could be anticipated. (+info)

Supporting family caregivers in stroke care: a review of the evidence for problem solving. (6/39)

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Teaching effective problem-solving skills to family caregivers of patients with chronic disease has been shown to be useful for promoting physical and psychosocial well-being. However, the use and effectiveness of problem solving for supporting caregivers in stroke care has not been reviewed. This article aims to identify and review studies that have examined the effectiveness of teaching problem solving skills to caregivers in stroke care, highlight gaps in the evidence base, and recommend avenues for additional research. METHODS: A structured review of literature identified from nursing, medicine, and psychology databases from 1970 to 2004 was conducted. Eleven articles reporting the development or evaluation of effective problem-solving interventions for caregivers of patients with stroke were critically appraised using recognized quality criteria. RESULTS: The results of this review show that the strength of evidence for problem-solving interventions for caregivers of stroke patients is limited. Because some studies used small samples and varied methods and interventions, making a comparison was difficult. Caregivers' problem-solving abilities were rarely measured, and the theoretical concepts and framework underpinning most studies were unclear. CONCLUSIONS: Evidence from the review suggests a need to additionally study the link between theoretical concepts of effective problem solving and outcomes using standardized measures and to examine also the processes involved in implementing the intervention using multimethod designs, including both quantitative and qualitative approaches.

The effects of respite care for homeless patients: a cohort study. (7/39)

OBJECTIVES: Homeless individuals experience high rates of physical and mental illness, increased mortality, and frequent hospitalizations. Respite care provides homeless individuals with housing and services allowing more complete recovery from illnesses and stabilization of chronic conditions. METHODS: We investigated respite care's impact on 225 hospitalized homeless adults consecutively referred from an urban public hospital during a 26-month period. The cohort was separated into 2 groups: (1) patients referred and accepted into the respite center and (2) patients referred but denied admission because beds were unavailable. All patients met the center's predefined eligibility criteria. Main outcome measures were inpatient days, emergency department visits, and outpatient clinic visits. RESULTS: The 2 groups had similar demographic characteristics, admitting diagnoses, and patterns of medical care use at baseline. During 12 months of follow-up, the respite care group required fewer hospital days than the usual care group (3.7 vs 8.3 days; P=.002), with no differences in emergency department or outpatient clinic visits. Individuals with HIV/AIDS experienced the greatest reduction in hospital days. CONCLUSIONS: Respite care after hospital discharge reduces homeless patients' future hospitalizations. (+info)

A systematic review of the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of different models of community-based respite care for frail older people and their carers. (8/39)

OBJECTIVES: To review the evidence for different models of community-based respite care for frail older people and their carers, where the participant group included older people with frailty, disability, cancer or dementia. Where data permitted, subgroups of carers and care recipients, for whom respite care is particularly effective or cost-effective, were to be identified. DATA SOURCES: Major databases were searched from 1980 to March 2005. Ongoing and recently completed research databases were searched in July 2005. REVIEW METHODS: Data from relevant studies were extracted and quality assessed. The possible effects of study quality on the effectiveness data and review findings were discussed. Where sufficient clinically and statistically similar data were available, data were pooled using appropriate statistical techniques. RESULTS: Twenty-two primary studies were included. Most of the evidence came from North America, with a minority of effectiveness and economic studies based in the UK. Types of service studied included day care, host family, in-home, institutional and video respite. Effectiveness evidence suggests that the consequences of respite upon carers and care recipients are generally small, with better controlled studies finding modest benefits only for certain subgroups. However, many studies report high levels of carer satisfaction. No reliable evidence was found that respite can delay entry to residential care or that respite adversely affects care recipients. Randomisation validity in the included randomised studies was sometimes unclear. Studies reported many different outcome measures, and all of the quasi-experimental and uncontrolled studies had methodological weaknesses. The descriptions of the studies did not provide sufficient detail of the methods of data collection or analysis, and the studies failed to describe adequately the groups of study participants. In some studies, only evidence to support respite care services was presented, rather than a balanced view of the services. Only five economic evaluations of respite care services were found, all of which compared day care with usual care and only one study was undertaken in the UK. Day care tended to be associated with higher costs and either similar or a slight increase in benefits, relative to usual care. The economic evaluations were based on two randomised and three quasi-experimental studies, all of which were included in the effectiveness analysis. The majority of studies assessed health and social service use and cost, but inadequate reporting limits the potential for exploring applicability to the UK setting. No study included generic health-related quality of life measures, making cost-effectiveness comparisons with other healthcare programmes difficult. One study used sensitivity analysis to explore the robustness of the findings. CONCLUSIONS: The literature review provides some evidence that respite for carers of frail elderly people may have a small positive effect upon carers in terms of burden and mental or physical health. Carers were generally very satisfied with respite. No reliable evidence was found that respite either benefits or adversely affects care recipients, or that it delays entry to residential care. Economic evidence suggests that day care is at least as costly as usual care. Pilot studies are needed to inform full-scale studies of respite in the UK. (+info)

Respite care is a short-term relief for primary caregivers, typically family members, who are caring for individuals with special needs or chronic illnesses and require temporary break from their caregiving responsibilities. This service can be provided in various settings such as the patient's home, community centers, or healthcare facilities, and may include nursing care, therapy, supervision, and companionship. The main goal of respite care is to provide temporary relief to the primary caregiver, reduce stress, prevent burnout, and maintain the overall well-being of both the caregiver and the person receiving care.

Home nursing, also known as home health care or homecare nursing, refers to medical care or assistance provided by registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, or nursing assistants in the patient's home. This type of care is often prescribed for patients who are recovering from surgery, illness, or injury and require skilled nursing services, wound care, medication management, pain control, or other health-related services. Home nursing can also include assistance with personal care tasks such as bathing, dressing, and grooming. The goal of home nursing is to help patients manage their health conditions, recover more quickly, and maintain their independence while receiving high-quality medical care in the comfort of their own homes.

A halfway house, also known as a sober living house or transitional housing, is not strictly a medical term but a social service concept. However, it does have significant relevance to the medical field, particularly in mental health and substance abuse treatment. A halfway house is a supervised residential facility that provides intermediate-term housing and support services for individuals who are transitioning from institutionalized settings such as hospitals, prisons, or rehabilitation centers back into the community.

The primary goal of halfway houses is to promote the reintegration of residents into society by offering a structured living environment, counseling, vocational training, and other support services that help them develop the necessary skills for independent living. Halfway houses often have rules and regulations in place to ensure the safety and well-being of their residents, including mandatory curfews, drug testing, and participation in therapy or counseling sessions.

In the context of mental health and substance abuse treatment, halfway houses can play a crucial role in supporting individuals as they navigate their recovery journey. They provide a safe and stable living environment that allows residents to focus on their treatment while gradually adjusting to life outside of an institutional setting. This transitional period is essential for many individuals, as it helps them build confidence, develop coping strategies, and establish healthy routines before fully reintegrating into society.

In summary, a halfway house is a supportive residential facility that offers intermediate-term housing and support services to individuals transitioning from institutionalized settings back into the community. While not a medical term per se, it has significant relevance to mental health and substance abuse treatment by providing a structured living environment and essential support services during the critical transitional period.

A caregiver is an individual who provides assistance and support to another person who is unable to meet their own needs for activities of daily living due to illness, disability, frailty, or other reasons. Caregiving can take many forms, including providing physical care, emotional support, managing medications, assisting with mobility, and helping with household tasks and errands. Caregivers may be family members, friends, or professional providers, and the level of care they provide can range from a few hours a week to round-the-clock assistance. In medical contexts, caregivers are often referred to as informal or family caregivers when they are unpaid relatives or friends, and professional or paid caregivers when they are hired to provide care.

"Health services for the aged" is a broad term that refers to medical and healthcare services specifically designed to meet the unique needs of elderly individuals. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), health services for the aged should be "age-friendly" and "person-centered," meaning they should take into account the physical, mental, and social changes that occur as people age, as well as their individual preferences and values.

These services can include a range of medical and healthcare interventions, such as:

* Preventive care, including vaccinations, cancer screenings, and other routine check-ups
* Chronic disease management, such as treatment for conditions like diabetes, heart disease, or arthritis
* Rehabilitation services, such as physical therapy or occupational therapy, to help elderly individuals maintain their mobility and independence
* Palliative care and end-of-life planning, to ensure that elderly individuals receive compassionate and supportive care in their final days
* Mental health services, including counseling and therapy for conditions like depression or anxiety
* Social services, such as transportation assistance, meal delivery, or home care, to help elderly individuals maintain their quality of life and independence.

Overall, the goal of health services for the aged is to promote healthy aging, prevent disease and disability, and provide high-quality, compassionate care to elderly individuals, in order to improve their overall health and well-being.

The term "frail elderly" is not a formal medical diagnosis, but rather a general description used to identify older adults who are vulnerable and at increased risk for negative health outcomes. Frailty is a complex syndrome characterized by decreased physiological reserve and resistance to stressors, which results in increased vulnerability to adverse outcomes.

The frail elderly often have multiple chronic conditions, cognitive impairment, functional limitations, social isolation, poor nutritional status, and sensory deficits. These factors contribute to a decline in their physical function, mobility, and overall health, making them more susceptible to falls, disability, hospitalization, institutionalization, and mortality.

There are several tools and criteria used to define frailty, including the Frailty Phenotype model proposed by Fried et al., which identifies frailty based on the presence of three or more of the following five criteria: unintentional weight loss, weakness (measured by grip strength), self-reported exhaustion, slow walking speed, and low physical activity. Another commonly used tool is the Clinical Frailty Scale, which assesses frailty based on a person's level of dependence and coexisting medical conditions.

It is important to note that frailty is not an inevitable part of aging, and interventions aimed at addressing its underlying causes can help improve outcomes for the frail elderly. These interventions may include exercise programs, nutritional support, medication management, and social engagement.
