A Proposed Universal “Home Time” Quality of Life Measure for Older Adults

A "1.0" universal person-centered home time measure that reflects QoL should include days in the emergency department, inpatient care, and post-acute care. Expert input revealed domains of agreement and disagreement. Future validation efforts that incorporate expert input are needed to iterate and arrive at the optimal measure.

Abstract

A "1.0" universal person-centered home time measure that reflects QoL should include days in the emergency department, inpatient care, and post-acute care. Expert input revealed domains of agreement and disagreement. Future validation efforts that incorporate expert input are needed to iterate and arrive at the optimal measure.
