Objective To explore the attitude and knowledge towards elderly among undergraduate nursing student , and to investigate the factors which influencing their willingness to work with elderly . Methods A total of 112 freshmen and junior nursing students were chosen by convenience method as sample in one university and surveyed by demographic questions , the Kogan′s Attitude toward Older People ( KAOP) and the Palmore′s Facts on Aging Quiz 1 ( FAQ 1).Results 85.7% of participates had not learned the aging knowledge systematically , and 75.0% presented interest in aged people while 65.2% showed willingness to work for elderly .All students showed a positive attitude towards elderly ( KAOP >102 ) , and the freshmen acquired (145.5 ±11.3) scores while junior students gained (132.9 ±11.9) scores (t=5.6,P<0.05). Meanwhile, freshmen obtained (12.0 ±2.3) scores for the knowledge of aging whilst junior students achieved (12.9 ±2.5) scores (t=-2.0,P<0.05).The age of students had positive correlation with the knowledge of aging, but negative correlation with attitude towards elderly (r =0.231, -0.374,respectively;P <0.05). Students who were more interested in elderly showed more willingness to work for elderly (r=0.314,P<0.01). Conclusions Undergraduate nursing students have a positive attitude towards elderly , and have shortage of aging knowledge , which implied that we should change the curriculum model to improve the right view and interest toward elderly , and cultivate more excellent geriatric nursing students .

Objective To investigate the home-based rehabilitation of stroke patients in China, and to compare the curative effects under different factors, so as to discuss the strategies for home-based rehabilitation. Methods A total of 234 cases of stroke patients who has been discharged from the center of rehabilitation medicine of a Class Ⅲ Grade A hospital were selected by random cluster sampling method. Family rehabilitation status of patients and their caregivers was investigated by outpatient follow-up, home follow-up and telephone follow-up survey. In the survey, the general information questionnaire, the Barthel Index (BI), the Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL), the Self-perceived Burden Scale (SPBS) and the Zarit Caregiver Burden Interview (ZBI) were applied. Results The results showed that the BI score was (61.77±22.83). The average score of IADL was (7.25±6.26). The SPB score was (29.26±7.07). 91.13% of the patients in the study group had a sense of burden. The ZBI score of the caregivers was (43.97±12.28), 59.40% of which had moderate or severe burden. The result of single factor analysis showed that the differences in the scores of BI, IADL, SPBS and ZBI of patients in different gender were statistically significant (P< 0.05). There were significant differences in BI and IADL scores among patients of different ages, main caregivers, family rehabilitation time and caregivers' gender (P< 0.05). The differences in the scores of IADL and SPBS of patients with different educational level were statistically significant (P<0.05). The differences in BI and ZBI scores of patients with different disease types were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions The family rehabilitation of stroke patients is poor. Medical workers should pay attention to the rehabilitation of patients after discharge, especially to female stroke patients, caregivers and to strengthen the rehabilitation knowledge training for male caregivers. It is suggested that community rehabilitation, family doctor responsibility system and hospital-community-family Union should be vigorously developed so as to improve the family rehabilitation of stroke patients, reduce readmission rate, increase the utilization of social resources, and improve the health level of the whole people.
