Thesis (M.S.)--Boston University / The chronically ill patient in a general hospital
designated for the treatment of the acutely ill presents
serious problems to the medical team. With the advancements
made in the medical profession, together with
improved hospital facilities, more people today can
benefit from hospitalization. Because of this fact, more
people utilize hospital facilities today than in the past,
with the results that hospitals are often overcrowded and
cannot accommodate all who require treatment. Consequently,
it is extremely important that the period of
hospitalization be as short as possible, and consistent
with the patient's condition, both for the chronically
and the acutely ill if these services are to be available
to all.
