A cost-effectiveness analysis of home care and community-based nursing homes for stroke patients and their families.

Abstract:

:A prospective study designed for 336 hospitalized patients with stroke and their families, who were followed from the discharge day to the third month after being discharged, was carried out in order to compare the costs and effectiveness of home care with the community-based nursing homes for stroke patients with different physical function disabilities in terms of ADL scores and their families. The ADL scores of the patients with severe physical function disability did not improve with or without long-term care; however, the patients with moderate physical function disability were significantly improved at the end of the third month, even without interventions from long-term care. The family costs of the patients in nursing homes were substantially lower than the costs for the patients who stayed at home, and the relationship of the family costs of the patients cared for in their own homes was proportional to the patients' physical function status. The labour input from family caregiving accounted for at least 60% of the total family costs of the patients who stayed at home, and the paid for long-term care services accounted for at least 60% of total family costs when the patients stayed in nursing homes. The multiple linear regression demonstrated that the degree of caregiving from families was a predictor of the amount of the costs families incurred for patients with severe physical function disability; as a result the ADL scored on discharge significantly influenced the average total family costs for the patients cared for in their own homes.
