The two groups received routine family visits， and the experimental group received family visits based on empowerment education. The intervention cycle of the two groups was 6 months.

ResultsAfter intervention， the intra group comparison showed that the BPRS score in the experimental group was lower than that before the intervention （t=4.550， P<0.01）， the SSMIS scores in both groups were higher than those before intervention （t=-17.107， -6.367， P<0.01）， and the IWB score in the experimental group was higher than that before intervention （t=-9.239， P<0.01）. The comparison between groups showed that the BPRS score of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group， and the SSMIS and IWB scores were higher than those of the control group （t=-3.899， 10.564， 9.690， P<0.01）. ConclusionThe implementation of family visit based on empowerment education may help to improve the psychotic symptoms of home rehabilitation schizophrenia， and improve their self-management ability and well-being.

This study is aimed at reviewing both the rehabilitative program and the role of the home visit physician regarding ALS patients living at home. Seven ALS patients were chosen as subjects for this study. Two of these patients required a mechanical ventilation system and nutritional support such as gastrostomy or central venous infusion, and all patients were found to be totally dependent on their physical care for activities of daily living. Although home visit rehabilitation services were planned for 5 of the patients, it was found that the individual rehabilitation needs of each patient differed depending on the progression of the ALS or the patient's impairment, the level of care that can be given, public support system usage, and the patient's acceptance of their ALS. Cooperation between family members and multidisciplinary care members was essential for effective daily management of the medical and rehabilitation needs of these patients. The home visit physician should provide appropriate care from the viewpoint of the patient's life, based on the decisions of the patient and their family.
