Sammanfattning
The purpose of this study was to identify predictors of mortality and institutionalization in aged patients receiving Finnish supervised home care. Predictors of long-term institutional care are impaired ADL functioning, impaired cognition and depression. These data may be helpful in resource allocation and targeting patients for the supervised home care programmes.
