Journal Title: Indian Journal of Youth and Adolescent Health - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction: A patient’s episode of care should be planned before his/her admission and should take account of the entire “journey” up to and after discharge from hospital. Patients and their care-giver should be partners in this planning. Pre-admission assessment should be a standard requirement for all elective admissions. The anticipated length of stay for elective admissions should be indicated as early as possible to facilitate scheduling. Discharge plans agreed between the hospital and a key worker in primary care, discharge planning that commences on day of admission.
