A Patient-Centred Medical Home Care Model for Community-Dwelling Older Adults in Singapore
Patient-Centred Medical Home (PCMH) is a strategy to enhance patient-centredness to improve care experience. We aimed to understand patient experience of an integrated PCMH model for complex community-dwelling older adults in Singapore. We used a mixed-method design with a prospective single-group pre-post quantitative component and a concurrent qualitative component. Participants were administered the validated Consumer Assessment of Health Prov…

Methods: Semistructured interviews were conducted to saturation with 16 community nurses in Singapore. Interviews were transcribed verbatim …
The Role of a Multicomponent Home-Health Intervention in Reducing Caregiver Stress in Singapore
The multidimensional home-health intervention reduced both primary and secondary stressors for caregivers. FDWs constituted a resource that caregivers could rely on and the training provided to FDWs by intervention staff further reduced caregiver stress. Implications for program planning and future research are discussed
