| Popis: | The first prospective, controlled study of a large, long-stay, in-patient population as their hospital services were reprovided in the community is reported. Two-hundred-and-seventy-eight patients were matched individually with similar patients who remained in hospital. Clinical and social outcomes over a one-year follow-up are presented for the first three years of the reprovision process. Compared with matches, the leavers at follow-up had more diverse social networks that contained a higher proportion of contacts named as friends. The care facilities in the community allowed more opportunities for patient autonomy than the hospitals across all aspects of the environments measured. At follow-up, more leavers than matches wanted to remain in their current placement, while fewer leavers than matches said there was nothing they liked about their current placement. More leavers than matches found their medication helpful. |
