Psychiatric patients in home care require support and treatment, but they also need to learn skills and self-management that will assist them after home care ends. Mental illness can be compared with any long-term illness, such as diabetes or arthritis, in that patients should be prepared to cope with their illness through self-management. Mental illness should be considered no differently because patients also experience fluctuation in symptoms as a result of stress and the changing nature of their illnesses and will not always require intensive treatment.

The hospice movement was built around patient choice and autonomy. Because of recent Medicare scrutiny, some patients are being denied the choice of hospice at the end of their lives. Hospice staff must learn how to accurately and completely document the care they provide so that patients are not denied access to care because they do not “meet the guidelines” or payment is denied as a result of inadequate or unclear documentation.

Using the Older Americans Resources and Services (OARS) tool, this study examined quality of life related to functional status in 68 elderly clients at two community-based nurse-managed centers (NMCs) in California. Undergraduate and graduate nursing students administered the OARS to three cohort groups. Data from the tool were used to assess functional independence among these clients and organize and evaluate the quality of nursing care delivered at the centers. The study provides the basis for evidence-based nursing care that integrates research strategies and the nursing process.
