This study evaluates the impact of a rehabilitation program developed by a specific unit (304) of Louis H. Lafontaine Hospital to prepare severely disabled long-term psychiatric inpatients for discharge. Patients who participated in the program were evaluated three years after their discharge and compared to control patients paired to them by age, sex and years of hospitalization and discharged from other units of the hospital. The results suggest that the rehabilitation program, if coupled with an adequately staffed residential environment giving patients continuous care, offers a better outcome, at least in the case of the severely disabled long-term psychiatric inpatients.
本研究评估了路易斯·H·拉方丹医院特定科室(304 科室)制定的康复项目对重度残疾的长期精神病住院患者出院准备情况的影响。参与该项目的患者在出院三年后接受评估,并与按年龄、性别和住院年限与之配对且从医院其他科室出院的对照患者进行比较。结果表明,该康复项目若与人员配备充足、能为患者提供持续护理的居住环境相结合,至少对于重度残疾的长期精神病住院患者而言,能带来更好的结果。
