Data Sheet 5_Post-discharge “continuum of care” clinical pathway (CP) for persons with sev

Stephanie Reichl published a qualitative research dataset on figshare in 2026. It documents opinions from 11 healthcare professionals on a needs-based clinical pathway for patients with severe neuro-disabilities requiring home-based intensive care. The analysis is based on 301 individual responses from semi-structured group interviews.

Use Cases

• Modeling community healthcare needs based on stakeholder-identified facilitators and barriers.
• Evaluating the appropriateness of a clinical pathway concept based on professional feedback.
• Identifying system-level constraints for post-discharge care based on themes like funding fragmentation and coordination.
• Designing specialist outreach team functions based on the positive evaluation of regional outreach follow-up teams (ROFT).

Strengths

• Includes 301 individual coded responses from stakeholder interviews.
• Captures perspectives from three distinct professional groups: home-based specialized intensive care nursing (HSICN), community therapists (THER-C), and regional outreach follow-up teams (ROFT).
• Licensed under CC-BY-4.0 for open sharing and reuse.

Limitations

• The dataset is a 320.9 KB PDF; its internal structure and raw data are not directly machine-readable.
• Row count and column-level documentation are absent; data semantics must be inferred from the document.
• The authors note the absence of patient and caregiver perspectives as a relevant limitation.
