The objectives of this study are to find out the actual situation of discharged patients' home modifications to mitigate the environmental gap between a recovery rehabilitation hospital and their own houses, as well as to identify their potential needs of house improvement. The results of this study shows: 1) Patients have many potential needs for home modification which is hard to be discovered by PT or OT at the one-time-only home inspection one month before discharge. 2）The typical suggestion from PT and OT is to install handrails while architectural expertise has limited opportunity to give professional advice, therefore their collaboration system should be established.
