Home rehab trial could change Post-Hospital recovery
NCT ID NCT06416670
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares getting skilled nursing care at home versus in a traditional facility for people who need rehabilitation after a hospital stay. About 300 adults will be randomly assigned to either recover at home with a technology-supported care team or go to a skilled nursing facility. The main goal is to see if home care leads to similar or better improvements in daily activities.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
skilled nursing facility care at home
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a more comfortable and potentially lower-cost way to recover from a hospital stay, without needing to go to a nursing facility.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small trial (300 people) and results may not apply to everyone. Home care might not provide the same level of intensive therapy as a facility, and some patients may not have a safe home environment for recovery.
