Profile of Home Healthcare Patients and Evaluation of Health Service Provided to Patients-Istanbul Province Example

Abstract

Aim: Examining the profiles of home health patients and evaluating the service are effective in improving patient outcomes, reducing hospitalizations and reducing health care costs. The aim of this study is to determine the profile of home health patients and to evaluate the health services provided to the patients. Method: The research is a descriptive retrospective study. This research was made by scanning the files of 21 410 patients who received service from the home health services unit in Istanbul, Turkey in 2022. Results: In the study, 67.48% of the patients receiving home health services were women and 55.10% were between the ages of 66-85. In the study, it was seen that 45.18% of home health patients had neurological and psychiatric diseases, 23.57% had endocrine diseases and 18.45% had cardiovascular diseases. In the services provided, it was determined that patient examination was first (43.89%), patient education practices were second (27.55%) and blood sampling (9.76%) were applied in third place. Conclusion: Most of the home health patients are women and elderly patients. It is recommended that the education program services given to home care patients should be increased and that education programs should be prepared in accordance with the patient profile and about the most common chronic diseases, with the feature of improving the prognosis. In order to achieve the desired goal in home care services, it is recommended to develop care protocols and guidelines
