Proportion of older people (65 and over) who were still at home 91 days after discharge from hospital into reablement/rehabilitation services (NHSOF 3.6.i)
The proportion of older people (aged 65 and over), expressed as a percentage, who, after a period of reablement/rehabilitation, maintain their independence by remaining or returning to their home or previous residence 91 days after leaving hospital.
Purpose
This indicator measures the benefit to individuals from reablement, intermediate care and rehabilitation following a hospital episode, by determining whether an individual remains living at home 91 days following discharge. This is seen as a key outcome for many people using reablement services.
