Abstract More than 200,000 Veterans transition between hospital and skilled nursing facility (SNF) annually. Capturing outcomes of these transitions has been challenging because older adult Veterans receive care at VA and non-VA hospitals, and four different kinds of SNFs: VA-owned and -operated Community Living Centers (CLCs), VA-contracted community nursing homes (CNHs), State Veterans Homes (SVHs), and non-VA community SNFs.

Abstract BACKGROUND Despite aggressive treatment with surgery and chemo-radiation therapy, it is difficult to cure patients with glioblastoma (GBM). The end-of-life (EOL) phase of patients with GBM, and related problems, have not yet been adequately studied. Unlike in other countries, most cancer patients died in the hospital (84%) in 2017, but the Japanese government has recommended palliative home care and the number of deaths at home has recently been increasing. This study explores the current situation of EOL care for GBM patients in Japan. METHODS We retrospectively examined the clinical
