According to q questionnaire, mailed to 101 nurses, assistant nurses and home help aides (with an 86% response rate), 70 percent felt that their patients´technical aids increased their self-care capabilities, although 35 percent of the staff felt a need for more knowledge about these aids. Another questionnaire, involving 59 patients and 79 technical aids orders, showed that 58 percent of these patients received their aids within 3 days, 96 percent within 14 days, and all within 31 days. Technical aid orders were collected during a period af 12 months. The results showed that 260 persons (3 percent) of the community´s population had redeived 339 technical aids.
