The Adult Day Health Care Evaluation Study--impact on VA programs
1Extended Care Service, Department of Veterans Affairs, Washington, DC 20420.
Abstract:
The research study in Adult Day Health Care (ADHC) has had a fourfold impact on the Veterans Administration: 1) It defined the health care focus of ADHC and shaped consequent program design; 2) It forged a partnership between research and clinical staff in ADHC programmatic development; 3) It enhanced the perception of research in program development in long-term care; and 4) It provided VA with direction for program redesign to render ADHC more cost-effective. With careful planning, the program is expected to grow in the future as a part of VA's continuum of long-term care programs.
