Summary

Some research found the effectiveness of implementation of home health care on patients' physical function, quality of life (QoL) and decreased the risk of hospitalization and medical costs. However, little was known about the longitudinal change of comprehensive assessments of physical and mental health, QoL, well-being, and medical resource utilization of patients receiving home health care and their caregivers. Furthermore, the evaluation of advance care planning, palliative care need, and the quality of dying and death were also insufficient among the aforementioned population. Therefore, this cohort study aims to investigate the longitudinal change of health-related outcomes and utilization of resource utilization, and explore their trajectories in two years for patients who receive home health care and their caregivers in Taiwan.
