Description

In the post-acute phase rehabilitation ward, what is client doing everyday is the rehabilitation. Therefore, we had to grasp their physical and mental stresses all the day. We gave the clients questionnaire, and their results indicated that, they complained the sense of "sleepy", "heavy foot", and "pain" after rehabilitation. We recognized the necessity of post-rehabilitation aftercare. We performed foot care for their complain reduction. The 5 female patients were chosen to receive foot care. They could understand our commands. Their complains came out by walking training with supporting instrument. Two patients administered sleeping tablets before sleep. All 5 clients felt free from stress, and their temperature was warm up until sleep. Two patients who took sleeping tablets could take enough sleep without tablets. We realized that foot care relaxation was effective against their QOL and increased their motivation.
