Most nursing facility transitions involve a small, unique patient group. Further research is needed to define transition success and forecast future populations accurately.

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Health Services Research
  • Health Policy

Background:

  • Nursing facility transition literature is expanding, but characteristics of assisted individuals remain understudied.
  • Limited research compares transitioned residents to those remaining institutionalized.
  • Understanding patient profiles is crucial for effective transition programs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe characteristics of individuals participating in a nursing facility transition program.
  • To compare transitioned residents with non-transitioned nursing facility residents.
  • To present an analytic method for characterizing transition program participants.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized Arkansas Minimum Data Set 2.0 data for 111 transitioned and 1,000 non-transitioned residents.

  • Employed tree classification techniques to identify distinct resident groups.
  • Included a validation sample of all residents from transitioned individuals' nursing facilities.

    • Main Results:

    • Two-thirds of transitionees belonged to a unique group comprising only 1.5% of all residents.
    • Key characteristics for this group included age, day of stay, hemiplegia/paraplegia, cognitive impairment, and low-resource RUG-III case-mix.
    • A second group, comprising 92% of transitionees, was characterized by being younger than 65 or in low-resource RUG-III groups.

    Conclusions:

    • The majority of individuals in this pilot program represent a small, atypical nursing facility subpopulation.
    • Policymakers should be cautious when using these data for future population, cost, or outcome forecasts.
    • Replication with additional state data can improve understanding of transition program participants and success definitions.
