This study was conducted to obtain patients' experiences in making the transition from an acute care hospital to their homes in the community.
Data were gathered through group and telephone interviews with a volunteer sample of 27 discharged patients. Analysis involved two stages: categorization of shared themes and interpretation of individual occupational experiences.
Informants described their experiences of transition in terms that were analytically categorized as Perceived Self-Efficacy, Resources, Dimensions of Occupation, and Environmental Constraints and Opportunities. Analysis of individual patient transcripts suggests the presence of an hierarchical ordering of desired occupations.
Understanding patients' perceptions of enabling and disabling experiences has implications for predischarge and postdischarge practice in occupational therapy.
本研究旨在了解患者从急症医院过渡到社区居家的经历。
通过对27名出院患者的志愿者样本进行小组访谈和电话访谈收集数据。分析包括两个阶段：对共同主题进行分类以及对个体职业经历进行解读。
受访者描述了他们的过渡经历，这些经历在分析上被归类为感知自我效能、资源、职业维度以及环境限制与机会。对个体患者访谈记录的分析表明存在所需职业的层级排序。
了解患者对促进和阻碍经历的看法对职业治疗中的出院前和出院后实践具有启示意义。
