Results The occurrence of nursing accidents during hospitalization in the observation group was lower than that in the control group:4.76%(3/63) vs.1.77%(11/62), and there was significant difference, χ2=5.29,P < 0.05. MMSE score and patient′s satisfaction at the time of discharge in the observation group were higher than those in the control group:(25.12±1.59) points vs. (21.63±1.87) points,96.82%(61/63) vs. 85.48%(53/62), and there were significant differences, t=11.250,P < 0.01 and χ2=3. 87,P < 0.05.
