Implementation of Post-Acute Rehabilitation at Home: A Skilled Nursing Facility-Substitutive Model.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

For patients who require frequent and intensive therapy services after hospitalization, rehabilitation is predominantly provided in skilled nursing facilities (SNFs). Delivering post-acute rehabilitation in patients' homes offers a potential alternative. Our aim was to describe and evaluate services and functional outcomes and then identify factors associated with the provision of a 30-day post-acute care (PAC) bundle of rehabilitation, medical, and social services provided via the Rehabilitation at Home (RaH) program.

Design

Single-arm retrospective review of patients participating in the RaH program.

Setting

Multidisciplinary home-based delivery of PAC in Manhattan.

Participants

Individuals 18 years or older residing in a specified catchment area a
