Patient reported experiences of using community rehabilitation and/or support services whilst living with a long-term neurological condition: a qualitative systematic review and meta-aggregation.

CONCLUSION: Patient reported experiences identified common factors associated with process quality (respect, choice, autonomy, information provision, communication) and activities of patient centered care (personalized care, shared decision-making, self-management support) despite heterogeneity of neurological conditions, service configurations, and geographical location. These factors impact quality of life. Implications for Rehabilitation Patient reported experiences provide useful information about courtesy, respect, choice, autonomy, information provision, and communication. Outcomes of self-efficacy and self-management are important for people with stable and progressive long-term neurological conditions. Interactions with individual professionals influence engagement, self-efficacy, and self-management for people with long-term neurological conditions. Training for health and social care professionals should develop the advanced communication skills and behavior required to facilitate self-efficacy and self-management.
