Core Tip This study investigates the impact of an “Internet+”-based extended care model on patients with mild to moderate depression following hospital discharge. It demonstrates that integrating internet-based real-time supervision, reminders, and education significantly reduces anxiety and depressive symptoms (measured by Hamilton Anxiety Scale and Hamilton Depression Scale scores), enhances cognitive function (Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale scores), and improves medication adherence and quality of life compared to traditional care methods. Furthermore, this innovative approach boosts patient satisfaction and strengthens nursing staff’s professional identity, highlighting its potential as a scalable intervention for post-hospital treatment of depression.
