Transition out of the hospital is a vulnerable time for patients. Approximately 20% of patients experience an adverse event or re-hospitalization within 30 days of discharge. The lack of continuity of care at the time of hospital discharge negatively impacts clinical care, the patient experience and health care costs. Standardization of hospital discharge through systematic change is pivotal to individual patient success. A process improvement tool for discharging patients in a University Health System setting was designed. Entitled the Continuity of Care Checklist (CCC), its development was based on clinical and professional experience as well as a review of the literature. The checklist was subjected to review and input from a panel of seven experts, a convenience sample of key informants from varied medical and nursing backgrounds. The experts were provided a copy of the CCC and filled out a questionnaire on the design, content and practical implications of the CCC. A follow up debriefing was carried out with each of the key informants; field notes were taken. The data sources were reviewed for key themes; this input was incorporated into a revised final version of the CCC. The seven key informants agreed upon the need for such a checklist and concluded that the CCC could enhance transitions of care at the time of hospital discharge. Changes to the design and content of the seven sections of the checklist were made. Suggestions to enhance practical application were incorporated into the final revised version. Further study using the revised CCC as standardized proforma for hospital discharge and transitioning the patient to the next health care setting is indicated. Further study should include: incorporating the CCC into the current workflow, operationalizing it as part of the EHR, assigning responsibility for the CCC to a member of the hospital based team, and assigning responsibility for post acute care follow up to a member of the patient care team.

This book is concerned with the complexities of achieving quality in care transitions. The organization and accomplishment of high quality care transitions relies upon the coordination of multiple professionals, working within and across multiple care processes, settings and organizations, each with their own distinct ways of working, profile of resources, and modes of organizing. In short, care transitions might easily be regarded as complex activities that take place within complex systems, which can make accomplishing high quality care challenging. As a subject of enquiry, care transitions are approached from many research, improvement and policy perspectives: from group psychology and human factors to social and political theory; from applied process re-engineering projects to exploratory ethnographic studies; from large-scale policy innovations to local improvements initiatives. This collection will provide a unique cross-disciplinary and multi-level analysis, where each chapter presents a particular depth of insight and analysis, and together offer a holistic and detail understand of care transitions.

Problem: Hospital readmission rates have steadily climbed in the United States and the cost of unplanned readmissions can be detrimental. It has been identified that greater discharge preparation and quality care coordination greatly impacts the patient's plan of care and reduces the risk of unplanned 30-day readmissions. Transition programs help reduce the psychosocial barriers that prevent patients from being able to self-manage their conditions outside the acute setting and help patients effectively navigate the through the continuum of care. Context: Research has shown that when the social determinants of health (SDOH) barriers are identified appropriately and early-on, this can decrease a patient's risk of unplanned readmission. Audit results show opportunities for improvement in the program through development of a screening tool that will help clinicians appropriately identify psychosocial issues and increase educational awareness of the Transition Program (TP) as well as SDOH. Interventions: Several interventions were done to help increase low-elevated transitional support level referrals to TP: development of a psychosocial assessment tool, in-service meeting to review the referral process of the TP, and staff education to raise awareness and importance of identifying SDOH in patient care outcomes. Measures: Using HealthConnect and EPIC data to track weekly number of referral cases. Monitor if the development and implementation of the tool has increased the number of lowelevated TSL referrals to the Transition Program. Results: There was a 25% increase in low TSL referrals. Clinicians reported increased awareness and knowledge about SDOH and Transition Program interventions. Conclusions: Readmission and identifying SDOH barriers is a complex challenge to healthcare and requires interdisciplinary team collaboration and multimodal interventions.
