Adjusted predictors of one month decline in activities of daily living (ADL), nursing home placement or combined nursing home placement or death at one year, N=459

	One month ADL decline*			New nursing home placement at one year**			New nursing home placement or death at one year
	n	AOR	95% CI	n	AOR	95% CI	n	AOR	95% CI

^*Increase of 2 or more activities of daily living (ADL) deficits at one month compared to baseline

^**Twenty-eight participants who resided in the nursing home prior to hospital admission not eligible for outcome

AOR = Adjusted odds ratio

Models adjusted for the following covariates: age, sex, race, education, marital status, nursing home residence prior to hospitalization (ADL outcome only), ADL impairment at baseline, Charlson Comorbidity Index, Mini Mental State Examination score, antidepressant upon hospital admission, history of depression.

Adjusted results for outcome of death at one year were not significant, see text for details
