Abstract

Background: During the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is estimated that around 25% of infected residents in Nursing Homes in Catalonia died, which accounted for more than 50% of total COVID-19 deaths in the region. This devasting impact not only highlights the structural deficits of the long-term care facilities system, but it also provides a unique opportunity to gather evidence to support a redesign of the health and social care models–a redesign that focuses on individuals and their singularities, and is equipped with the staff and infrastructure required to meet their needs. Methods: The ResiCOVID-19 project will include five work packages to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic (from March 2020 to June 2022) on the individuals living in long-term care facilities in Catalonia, their family members, health care workers, and the organisations themselves. In this project, we will develop proposals for improvement and indicators for the long-term care model in Catalonia to better adapt to the current and future needs of people-centred care through conducting a rapid review, analysis of international experiences, retrospective analysis, and a cross-sectional study. The analysis will be conducted both from a quantitative and a qualitative perspective, measuring the impact at a system level as well as at a setting and individual level, including residents, families, professionals, and managers of longterm care facilities. Conclusions: The ResiCOVID-19 project is expected to have a significant impact at different dimensions, including the care model, social and organisational aspects (on professionals and facilities), systemic efforts (both for the healthcare and the social systems), and scientific contributions (providing evidence in a field of limited research in Catalonia).

Abstract

Objective: To describe the profile of patients treated by a Continuity of Care Manager in an acute-care center during the first six months of its activity, as well as the profile of patients treated and the resource allocation., Method: A prospective cross-sectional study was conducted on patients with complex care needs requiring continuity of care liaison, and who were attended by the Continuity of Care Nurse during the period from October 2013 to March 2014. Patient characteristics, their social environment and healthcare resource allocation were registered and analyzed., Results: A total of 1,034 cases of demand that corresponded to 907 patients (women 55.0%; age 80.57±10.1; chronic 47.8%) were analyzed, of whom 12.2% were readmitted. In the multivariate model, it was observed that the variables associated with readmission were polypharmacy (OR: 1.86; CI: 1.2-2.9) and fall history prior to admission (OR: 0.586; CI: 0.36-2-88)., Conclusions: Patients treated by a Continuity of Care Nurse are over 80 years, with comorbidities, geriatric syndromes, complex care, and of life needs, to whom an alternative solution to hospitalization is provided, thus preventing readmissions., (Copyright © 2015 Elsevier España, S.L.U.
