Intensive rehabilitation. Recent experience in a chronic disease hospital.
An intensive rehabilitation program for persons with severe physical disabilities was carried on over a two-year period in a 35-bed unit at Rancho Los Amigos Hospital, a chronic disease hospital.Eighty-five patients were released (69 adults, 16 children) from the program after an average stay of six and a half months. Seventy-one per cent of these were discharged to their homes and the remainder were transferred to convalescent wards so much improved that they required less care, even worked on the grounds. Over half of the adult patients discharged to their homes became employed, not counting the women who resumed housework.The average hospitalization for patients in the same hospital without this program is three and a half years. Thus, despite a much higher cost per day for the patients in the intensive rehabilitation program, the total cost is about $7,640 less per patient discharged from the hospital.In addition the shorter period in hospital helps meet the ever-increasing demand for chronic disease beds.
