Transition

Transition (3 days prior to discharge)

TRANSITION U is a program created for the patient and the family that allows the patient to start to takeover their care. Once this transition has begun the interdisciplinary team is able to step outside the box and really see where the patient’s progress really is and identify potential failures or areas that need to be addressed. Transition U not only prepares the patient to go home but it also includes processes like home safety evaluations and teaches medication management.

TRANSITION U introduces the patient and family to their Transition Coach. The Transition Coach becomes their key contact for preparing them to be able to not only go home, but remains their contact once they get home.
