自从实施结果和评估信息集和公开报告的结果指标以来，家庭保健的重点必然包括努力改善老年患者的功能能力。本文介绍了一些基于家庭的研究结果，为基于证据的实践提供了有效改善功能结果的策略。评估和干预措施的建议，以及行政和临床过程的护理已被发现成功地将研究转化为实践。结果表明，如果对护理系统进行重新设计，那么在患者和工作人员满意度以及改进的功能和经济结果方面的回报将是可观的。
Since implementation of the Outcome and Assessment Information Set and publicly reported outcome indicators, a focus of home healthcare necessarily includes efforts to improve older patients' functional abilities. This article presents results from selected home‐based research studies providing strategies for evidence‐based practice to efficiently and effectively improve functional outcomes. Assessments and interventions are suggested, as well as administrative and clinical processes of care that have been found to successfully translate research into practice. Results suggest that if systems of care are redesigned, the payoff in patient and staff satisfaction and in improved functional and economic outcomes can be substantial.
