Celebrating Care Closer to Home – launching a new international network for Community Hospitals
Background: Most intermediate care is provided at home, but some people receive ‘step up’ or ‘step down’ intermediate care in dedicated beds in community hospitals or care homes.

This workshop, a collaboration between the UK …

Five hundred and forty-two people aged over 60 years with heart failure were recruited from UK general practices in four areas of the UK, and these subjects completed quality-of-life and service-use questionnaires every 3 months for 24…
Experiences of end-of-life care in community hospitals: Experiences of end-of-life care
