Detailed Description

This is a multi-center study involving many hospital departments temporary accommodation at the end of hospitalization in several Nursing home/long term care units in Ile de France region. The temporary accommodation program was designed for elderly people living at home to find an accommodation solution in nursing home to meet a short-term need. Temporary accommodation beds are deployed and perpetuated in the Île-de-France region by the Regional Health Agency, physically grouped together in establishments within units with dedicated staff. The resources allocated to these beds have been increased. The aim of the study is to demonstrate the efficiency of the HTSH circuit, for elderly patients leaving hospital, in their medical and social care and the decision or not to return home. This project is supported by Regional Health Agency (ARS-IDF).
