Depression Proven Outcomes
Depression Recovery Care at Rogers
Adult residential outcomes
Results
From August of 2014 until February of 2020, 966 adults admitted to our residential care completed measures at both admission and discharge. Of these patients 60% were female and the mean age was 28 years (SD=11.7).
Many of our patients participate in our long term follow-up. Patients are contacted 1-year post discharge through telephonic and electronic means. Twelve months post discharge, the QIDS scores maintains at the mild level with patients reporting (m=9.85, SD=6.36) and a fair quality of life (m=49.18, SD= 11.69).
Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (QIDS)
The Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (QIDS) measures the overall severity of depression symptoms.
At time of admission to our residential care, individuals report severe depression, as measured by the QIDS (m= 16.2, SD=5.11), at time of discharge individuals report mild levels of depression (m= 8.01, SD=5.49). Utilizing paired sample t-tests, we find that these differences are statistically significant at the p< .001.
Scores range from 0-27. Higher scores indicate greater severity of depression symptoms.
Severity Range:
- 0-5 = None
- 6-10 = Mild
- 11-15 = Moderate
- 16-20 = Severe
- 21-27 = Very Severe
Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire
(Q-LES-Q)
The Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire measures the overall enjoyment and satisfaction individuals experience across a number of life domains such as family relationships, work, hobbies, etc. Our goal is to improve the quality of life for those we treat.
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=41.6, SD=16), and discharged with a fair to good quality of life (m=64.7, SD=17.5) 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

Adult inpatient outcomes
Results
On average, individuals who stay in inpatient care 6 days or longer have a significantly lower rate of readmitting back to inpatient care within 30 days of discharge. In addition, 91% of those that did readmit within 30 days did not follow their recommended Clinical Pathway of admitting into PHP or IOP levels of care but rather went straight to outpatient care instead.
From February of 2018 until February 2020, 3255 adults admitted to our inpatient care completed measures at both admission and discharge. 56% were female and the mean age was 34 years (SD=13.6).
