在疾病发作期间,老年患者可能会在多种环境中接受护理;通常会导致零散的护理和执行不良的护理过渡。分散护理的负面后果包括服务重复;不适当或相互矛盾的护理建议,用药错误,患者/护理人员的痛苦,以及更高的护理成本。尽管迫切需要减少这一人群的零散护理,但很少有干预措施帮助老年患者及其家庭成员顺利过渡。本文介绍了一个以病人为中心的跨学科团队干预,旨在改善老年护理的跨站点的过渡。
During an episode of illness, older patients may receive care in multiple settings; often resulting in fragmented care and poorly-executed care transitions. The negative consequences of fragmented care include duplication of services; inappropriate or conflicting care recommendations, medication errors, patient/caregiver distress, and higher costs of care. Despite the critical need to reduce fragmented care in this population, few interventions have been developed to assist older patients and their family members in making smooth transitions. This article introduces a patient-centered interdisciplinary team intervention designed to improve transitions across sites of geriatric care.
