Analysis of the Home Health Symptom Management Model
Abstract
The Home Health Symptom Management Model examines symptom management from the perspective of the home health patient. Results obtained from the model can be used to develop strategies for home health nursing that will improve the management of patients' symptoms, thus affecting outcomes and the cost of patient care. Case managers could use this information when arranging and evaluating home healthcare. The model can further be used in practice to assist home health nurses in their awareness of various factors that may predict numbers of home health visits.
