Resettlement of 15 long-stay psychiatric in-patients from a hospital rehabilitation unit to a new hostel was assessed by measuring symptoms, social behaviour and client satisfaction beforehand, then six and 12 weeks afterwards. Three residents experienced relapses with varying degrees of recovery. Overall, symptoms and social behaviour improved significantly. Change in satisfaction with the services offered proved difficult to measure accurately. A well resourced resettlement project can enhance long-stay patients' well-being.

Rehabilitation for hospitalized older people can improve their independence for performing activities of daily living (ADL), but determining its appropriateness can be challenging because of inherent limitations in their ADL and short life expectancy. Thus, we aimed to clarify the benefit of rehabilitation among older Japanese patients. We retrospectively evaluated consecutive older patients (age > 65 years) admitted to the rehabilitation unit of a rural community hospital between 1 April 2016 and 31 March 2020. The primary outcome measure was readmission for acute conditions. Of the 732 patients evaluated, 311 patients (42.5%) were readmitted. Readmission was significantly associated with body mass index (BMI) (p < 0.001), dependent condition (p < 0.001), higher cognitive domain scores in the functional independence measure (FIM) (p = 0.019), and polypharmacy (p = 0.026). The most frequent cause of readmission was pyelonephritis (11.9%), followed by pneumonia (10.9%), compression fracture (10.6%), heat stroke (8.4%), and cerebral stroke (8.0%). In conclusion, older Japanese patients discharged from rehabilitation units have lower readmission rates than those previously reported. Thus, better nutritional control, a multidisciplinary approach to the management of cognitive dysfunction, and a decrease in polypharmacy could be associated with improved outcomes among discharged older patients.

Background: Stroke is the most common cerebrovascular event. Stroke patients often have biological, spiritual, and psychosocial changes. Psychosocial problems experienced in stroke patients include problems with self-efficacy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is commonly used to solve psychosocial problems. Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of ACT on the self-efficacy of stroke patients.  Methods: This study utilized quantitative and quasi-experimental designs without a control group. The study was conducted in a selected hospital rehabilitation unit in Yogyakarta. The respondents were selected via the purposive sampling technique. The self-efficacy was assessed using The Strategies Used by Patients to Promote Health (SUPPH) questionnaires and statistically tested with the Wilcoxon test. The total number of respondents of this study was 33 stroke patients. The characteristic of respondents was mostly 45 – 64 years old (72.73% ), male (57.6%) and, had a history of stroke for 1 – 6 months (39 %). Result: Wilcoxon test results showed a computed p-value of 0.000 on the effect of ACT on stroke patients’ self-efficacy; thus, the null hypothesis was rejected. In other words, ACT proves its effectiveness in improving stroke patients’ self-efficacy. Conclusion: Based on the data, this research can be concluded that ACT effectively improved the self-efficacy of stroke patients. The researchers recommend utilizing ACT as a nursing intervention for stroke patients in the hospital rehabilitation unit.
