Outcomes
|
Participants demonstrated significant improvements in exercise, cognitive symptom management, communication with physicians, self-reported general health, health distress, fatigue, disability, and social/role activities limitations. They also spent fewer days in the hospital, and there was also a trend toward fewer outpatients visits and hospitalizations. These data yield a cost to savings ratio of approximately 1:4. Many of these results persist for as long as three years.
|
Decrease in length of hospital stays and use of psychoactive drugs. Reduced symptoms of mood disorders, greater sense of self-efficacy, improved physical activity
|
Discontinuation of potentially harmful medicines, decreased confusion and dizziness, better pain control, decreased risk of falls, and improved blood pressure control. The program identified potential medication problems in 40-60 percent of older adults screened. Pharmacists recommended changes in medications for 60 percent of the participants who screened in with potential problems. Of those recommendations, 60 percent led to changes that improved medication use.
|
Improved health status and health behavior, and self-efficacy
|
Improved health status and health behavior, and self-efficacy
|
At four months, the participants, as compared with usual-care control subjects, demonstrated improved health status, health behavior, and self-efficacy, as well as fewer emergency room visits. At one year, the improvements were maintained and remained significantly different from baseline condition.
