Referral to Geriatric Rehabilitation in the Netherlands, an Exploratory Study of Patient Characteristics
This study explored the case-mix characteristics of hospital patients following rehabilitation trajectories. No frailty measures were available; vulnerability was refined into physical, cognitive, and social components. Careful assessment of vulnerability can support personalized referral decision-making.
