Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To establish better care coordination between medical care and long-term care (LTC) for frail elderly, it is essential to identify patterns of care transitions among elderly adults who need medical and nursing care. We described transitions in sites of care among older adults in the last year of life, and will discuss how to provide frail elderly with care coordination and health promotion. Using medical care and LTC insurance claim data, as well as death certificate data, we identified transitions in each decedent’s living place in each month during the last year of life. In the last year of life, elderly individuals with severe disabilities were more likely to move between sites of care. They must be cautiously provided with care coordination services at either medical care or LTC settings. To remedy potential problems in coordination between these care settings, a home visiting nurse would be expected to play an important role in care coordination and health promotion.
