Overview

Literature review shows disease management plans reduce readmission rates in elderly patients, highlighting implementation needs.

Key Points

  • Implementing disease management plans reduces readmission rates by 1.7% within 30 days post-discharge, improving patient outcomes.
  • Adaptation issues after hospitalization affect over 55% of elderly individuals due to factors such as cognitive decline and social isolation.
  • The study covers relevant literature between 2017 and 2021, focusing on patients aged 65 and above, to assess management effectiveness.
  • Improving end-of-life care aligns with establishing post-hospital strategies, underscoring the gap between facility and community support.
