Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study was designed to examine life tasks of patients with cerebrovascular disorder and their caregivers by examining changes and differences in their subjective QOL at the time of discharge from the recovery rehabilitation unit and after their return home. Results indicated that patients’ subjective QOL scores decreased at home according to the time elapsed after discharge. Conversely, the caregivers’ scores increased at home according to the time elapsed after discharge. Furthermore, patients’ subjective QOL scores at the time of discharge and at home were both higher than those of the caregivers. However, no significant difference was found. The domains in life that were of importance to both groups included “family,” “health,” and “hobby.” Consequently, these were regarded as the tasks of life. Nursing intervention into these domains is necessary to improve the subjective QOL scores of both groups.
