High perceived social support and hospital readmissions in an older multi-ethnic, limited English proficiency, safety-net population.
This study examined the association between perceived social support and 30-day hospital readmission or death in older adults. The study used the cohort from the Support From Hospital to Home for Elders (SHHE) trial. Participants were English, Chinese and Spanish-speaking adults living in the community who were admitted to wards at an urban safety-net hospital in San Francisco. Overall readmission or death rate was 15%. Participants had a mean age of 66.2 with the majority being Asian (31.9%), then Black (24.8%), Latino (19.3%) and White (18.8%). Researchers found that those with high social support had half the odds of admission or death than those with low social support. The protection however seemed true only among minorities, and seemed to have the opposite effect among whites.
