IHI recently updated the four how-to guides on improving transitions to reduce avoidable readmissions, which include tested interventions. Each guide addresses a transition from the hospital to a different setting:
1. Community setting.
2. Skilled nursing facility.
3. Home healthcare.
4. Clinical office practice.
Download the hospital transition how-to guides for use in your own facility by clicking on “Materials” on the left-hand side of the STAAR website and then clicking “How-to Guides and Guides for Field Testing.”
Note: View our database providing more than 400 reports that link to free downloadable and adaptable tools for use in surgery centers, hospitals and other organizations.
