We have provided a home care service for the past 20 years as a part of our community medical program at the Division of General Medicine in Jichi Medical University Hospital (JMUH). We reflected our activities of the past 3 years since 2004, and considered our meanings of home care service at the University Hospital. Especially, we reported on terminal stage cancer patients who died in the past 3 years. We normally visit about 10 homes of our patients who live near the University Hospital. There has been a decreasing trend toward a regular home visit by doctor, but an emergency visit has been increasing. Further more, we visited many elderly cerebral vascular patients in the past. However, many terminal stage cancer patients have now been requesting us to visit their homes. A total of 17 patients died in the past 3 years: 10 of 17 patients died at their homes, and 6 of them were terminal stage cancer patients who died at their homes. |
