Description
Esther Jie Tian and co-authors reviewed community allied health care and its effect on hospital use, in this 2024 paper. Allied health covers fields such as physio, diet, speech, and social work. The review mixed outcome studies with views from patients, carers, and staff.
Sixty-seven papers met the rules, drawn from wide database and web searches. Proof that these services cut hospital use was mixed, in part because studies varied so much. Patients and carers were largely positive and saw room to build on good experiences. The certainty of proof for patient-level outcomes was rated very low. The authors urge care in reading the results.
