This paper describes the setting of a spinal cord injury (SCI) training apartment in the community. The purposes of its location in the community as a predischarge strategy are to regain confidence in the skills relearned to live independently, to initiate positive interpersonal relationships between individuals and family or other significant caretaker persons after the separation due to long hospitalization, to aid the patient and the rehabilitation team in determining the need for further rehabilitation, and to reduce length of hospitalization. The management and accountability, physical design and layout of the apartment, and patient assignments are described. All of the 32 patients were discharged to noninstitutional settings, 30 to homes and 2 to residential schools. After 15 months none required readmission for preventable complications.
本文描述了社区脊髓损伤（SCI）训练公寓的设立情况。将其设置在社区作为出院前策略的目的是，重拾重新学习的独立生活技能的信心，在因长期住院而分离后，在个人与家庭或其他重要护理人员之间建立积极的人际关系，帮助患者和康复团队确定进一步康复的需求，并缩短住院时间。文中描述了公寓的管理与责任、物理设计与布局以及患者分配情况。32名患者全部出院至非机构环境，30名回家，2名去了寄宿学校。15个月后，无人因可预防的并发症而需再次入院。
