The Hospital Elder Life Program at the Jewish General Hospital (HELP)
A Measure of the Effects of the Hospital Elder Life Program at the Jewish General Hospital: a Pre-post Intervention Study
研究概览
详细说明
Delirium and mobility impairment with high risk of falls are important medical complications after a hip surgery. More than 95% of hip fractures are caused by falling and the risk of a new fall after a hip surgery may be up to 50%. Both postoperative delirium and fall are associated with increased length of stay and high perioperative mortality.
The Hospital Elder Life Program (HELP) is a comprehensive inpatient-care program that ensures optimal care for older adults in the hospital. The primary goals of the HELP program are:
Maintaining cognitive and physical functioning of high risk older adults throughout hospitalization, maximizing independence at discharge, assisting with the transition from hospital to home, and preventing unplanned hospital readmissions. These goals have been accomplished using a multicomponent intervention strategy. In addition to targeted interdisciplinary geriatric assessment, the program uses an innovative volunteer model to provide personal, supportive attention to vulnerable older inpatients.
