The day hospital: efficacy and cost effectiveness.

Analysis of the operation of the Roberts day hospital has demonstrated that this is economically a sound alternative to other methods of care of the disabled with not only good maintenance of independence of the patients going through the centre but also an increased social involvement in the community. Lessons with regard to the operation of a day hospital team are discussed with particular attention being drawn to the controversial area of team leadership.

A geriatric day hospital: the first year.

The establishment and operation of a day hospital in its first year is reported. Increasing emphasis on disability in the community rather than age has resulted in more effective management of patient problems. Not only is the day hospital inexpensive but also it concentrates on the real needs so that the majority of the patients with motivational, social or physical disabilities can continue to function as home based members of the community.
