The 2013 addition of the Care Transition Measures to the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey; enactment of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (2010); and a greater focus on population health have brought a heightened awareness and need for action with patient transitions. Data are emerging from the additional Care Transition Measures and benchmarks have been developed. This article briefly describes the context of care transition. We describe the journey of Indiana University Health North Hospital to overcome patient care transition obstacles, ultimately achieving designation as a top performer. We will discuss our efforts to personalize patient outcomes and transition through activation and improve transitions for vulnerable populations, specifically in the bariatric and orthopedic patient populations. The article concludes with discussion of overcoming obstacles and future directions with continued focus on collaboration and improvement.

Abstract Background The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has had a massive impact on individuals globally. The Chinese government has formulated effective response measures, and medical personnel have been actively responding to challenges associated with the epidemic prevention and control strategies. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the implementation of a care transition pathway on patients that underwent joint replacement during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods A quasi-experimental study was designed to evaluate the effect of implementing a care transition pathway for patients who underwent joint replacement during the COVID-19 pandemic in the orthopedic department of a tertiary care hospital in Beijing, China. Using a convenient sampling method, a total of 96 patients were selected. Of these, 51 patients who had undergone joint replacement in 2019 and received treatment via the routine nursing path were included in the control group. The remaining 45 patients who underwent joint replacement during the COVID-19 epidemic in 2020 and received therapy via the care transition pathway due to the implementation of epidemic prevention and control measures were included in the observation group. The quality of care transition was assessed by the Care Transition Measure (CTM), and patients were followed up 1 week after discharge. Results The observation group was determined to have better general self-care preparation, written planning materials, doctor-patient communication, health monitoring, and quality of care transition than the control group. Conclusions A care transition pathway was developed to provide patients with care while transitioning through periods of treatment. It improved the patient perceptions of nursing quality. The COVID-19 pandemic is a huge challenge for health professionals, but we have the ability to improve features of workflows to provide the best possible patient care.
