What are some barriers and challenges to the transition of care from one level to another?

Step 1 Post a response to the discussion board.

Respond to the following prompts and, if it’s relevant, include your own personal experience:

  • What are some barriers and challenges to the transition of care from one level to another? Describe at least two. Examples: transition from hospital to primary care follow-up or long-term care to home care.
  • Give an example from your experience or the literature of a procedure aimed at improving the process of care transitions. What impact do you suppose it will have on patient safety?

Step 2 Read and respond to two other students’ posts

Read other students’ posts and respond to at least two of them. Use your personal experience, if it’s relevant, to help support or debate other students’ posts. If differences of opinion occur, debate the issues professionally and provide examples to support your opinions.

In addition to your original post, be sure to provide a meaningful response to at least two of your peer’s posts by Friday night at 11:59pm Mountain Time. Cite any sources in APA format.
