一位老年病学专家说,老年病日间医院(Day Hospital)可以为老年中风以及其它老年疾病提供的康复提供一种有效的、经济而实用的选择,而不必重新入院。在英国和澳大利亚已建了这种机构。这项工体在美国发展较慢,但观念也正在转变。认为老年病日间医院能够使出院患者加快康复及独立生活的能力。著名的老年病学教授Prinsley 说:许多美国成人日间医疗机构的服务侧重于非医药
A geriatric expert said that Day Hospital can provide an effective, economical and practical option for rehabilitation of elderly stroke and other geriatric diseases without having to be re-admitted. Such institutions have been established in the United Kingdom and Australia. This workforce developed slowly in the United States, but the concept is also changing. It is believed that geriatric day hospitals can enable discharged patients to speed up their recovery and independence. The famous professor of gerontology, Prinsley, said: Many American adult day care providers focus on non-medical services.
