摘要
Findings from a sample (n = 117) obtained through a survey mailed to a random sampling of social workers in home health agencies nation-wide suggest that the characteristics of patients discharged with unmet needs were psychosocial. Social work practice activities targeted transferring responsibility for care for patients from agencies and government/commercial third party payers to informal caregivers and community resources. Desired continuing education topics evidence the emphasis on effective interventions that facilitate discharge, interdisciplinary collaboration and practice evaluation.
