Adult residential outcomes
Results
From June of 2012 until June of 2020, 599 adults in our residential services completed measures at both admission and discharge. 53% were female and the mean age was 29 years (SD=11.1).
Many of our patients participate in our long-term follow-up. Patients are contacted 12 months post discharge by phone and email. One year post discharge, the YBOCS scores maintain at the mild level with patients reporting (m=14.70, SD=8.25) and a fair to good quality of life (m=55.35, SD= 12.74).
Yale Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (YBOCS)
This 10-item measure rates the severity and type of symptoms. It measures both obsessions and compulsions and is used to monitor symptom improvement during treatment.
At time of admission to our residential care, individuals report severe OCD, as measured by the YBOCS (m= 27.0, SD=5.29); at time of discharge individuals report moderate levels of OCD (m= 17.0, SD=6.71). Utilizing paired sample t-tests, we find that these differences are statistically significant at the p< .001.
Scores range from 0 (no symptoms) to 40 (extreme symptoms). Patients scoring in the mild or higher range are likely experiencing a significant negative impact on their quality of life.
Severity Range:
- 0-7 = Subclinical
- 8-15 = Mild
- 16-23 = Moderate
- 24-31 = Severe
- 32-40 = Extreme
Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire
(Q-LES-Q)
This 16-item self-report measures the degree of enjoyment and satisfaction experienced in various areas of daily functioning. Composed of 14 general activity items and two additional items on medication satisfaction and overall life satisfaction item.
Additionally, patients have statistical improvements in quality of life, measured by the Q-LES-Q-SF. Patients admitted with a poor to fair quality of life (m=42.6, SD=15.9), and discharged with a fair to good quality of life (m=63.4, SD=16.8). This is significant at the p<.001.
Though there is not an industry standard for interpreting score results, Rogers uses the following categories to evaluate our patients’ assessment of their quality of life:
- 80 - very good
- 64 - good
- 48 - fair
- 32 - poor
- 16 - very poor
