Abstract

The quality of life in hospital at home has been very little described. In the "Feel'HAD" study, 488 patients completed an EQ-5D-3L questionnaire during a nursing visit. Neurological and geriatric pathologies were found to be the most degraded, even if there were strong disparities within the different types of conditions. This work has shown that beyond technical care, some people need more support, psychological care, comfort or social support. It led to concrete improvements in our practices and demonstrated that large-scale research is possible in the home.
