ObjectiveTo describe the evolution of the profile of patients attended by a Geriatric Home Care (GHC) Unit and its care activity in the last two decades. MethodsData on the historical activity of the AGD Unit from 2001 to 2020, grouped into 5-year periods, were recorded. Sociodemographic, clinical, functional (Functional Red Cross Scale and Barthel index) and mental (Mental Red Cross Scale) variables were collected, baseline and at inclusion to AGD. Also the waiting time until first visit, mean follow-up, origin of referral, destination at the end of the intervention, reason for consultation and cause of functional dependence were also included. A descriptive analysis was performed with the SPSSv.23 program. ResultsTen thousand six hundred fifty-four patients attended in AGD (1 January 2001 to 31 December 2020). A progressive increase in age and in the number of geriatric syndromes was observed. Patients presented higher functional and cognitive decline, and the number of patients living alone and in need of private assistance increased. The duration of the intervention decreases and Primary Care remains the main source and destination at the end of the intervention, with dementia standing out as the main cause for functional dependence. ConclusionThe vulnerability of the populations in need of specialised geriatric care is increasing: patients are older, and have more geriatric syndromes, high functional and cognitive decline, and suffer social frailty; more work is needed to address the role of these support units in the community, as well as their coordination with Primary Care teams.
