Objective To explore the types ofhome care and their associations with home care safety outcomes among community-dwelling disabled older adults. Methods A total of 436 pairs of community-dwelling disabled older adults and their caregivers in Zhenjiang were selected using convenience sampling, then they were investigated by using a demographic questionnaire, the Katz Index, the Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire, the Short Form Zarit Caregiver Burden Interview, the Chinese Version of Family Caregiver Task Inventory, and the Questionnaire of Adverse Eventsin home care. Latent class analysis was conducted to identify the types of home care for community-dwelling disabled older adults. Multinomial logistic regression analysis was adopted to explore the influencing factors of subgroups, and Lanza method was used to compare the probability of adverse events in different subgroups. Results Four types of home care for community-dwelling disabled older adults were identified:mild disability with good cognition-strong care type (15.1%), severe disability-moderate care type (32.8%), severe disability-weak care type (15.1%) , and severe disability with good cognition-mode rate care type (36.9%). The age of older adults, number of chronic diseases, number of children, family financial status, caregivers′ gender, caregivers′ educational background, and caregiver burden were the influential factors of subgroup classification (all P<0.05); the severe disability-weak care type had the highest probability of experiencing adverse events (P<0.05). Conclusion There is heterogeneity in the types of home care among community-dwelling disabled older adults, which affects the outcomes of home care safety. Adopting targeted strategies tailored to the specific type of home care is essential to enhance home care safety.
