Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The intervention nursing homes will implement CGA, using the International resident instrument suite for Long Term Care Facilities (InterRai LTCF) and CC. The patients will be included and assessed three times during a 12-month period (control and intervention NHs). In the intervention NHs the results from the CGA will be reviewed in monthly CCs. The CCs are structured and consist of four main steps; evaluating the effects of earlier interventions, defining patients risks or area for improvement, defining the aetiology of the risk or problem, defining interventions and measures for improvement along with an appropriate method for evaluation. The CC group's consensus is basis for the patient's care plan.
