INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: Despite recent interest in care transitions, little
is known about how patients are prepared for the self-management tasks following
the hospitalization. The objective of the study was to explore how discharge
information is prepared and provided to patients in the transition from hospital
to home. METHOD: The discharge process at three hospitals in Sweden was observed
over 12 days spread over ten weeks. In total, 30 discharge encounters were
observed followed by interviews with patients and professionals. Data were
analysed using qualitative content analysis. RESULTS: Much time, effort and
resources were used to prepare the discharge; home-going teams and registered
nurses planned the practical and social aspects of the discharge and the
physicians compiled a plain-language discharge letter. Less focus was given on
the actual discharge information to the patients. The discharge encounters lasted
for a median of 4:46 minutes and the information had a retrospective focus with
information on the hospitalization period, though omitting self-management tasks
and life-style advice. CONCLUSION: The discharge letter constitutes the basis for
all patient information at discharge. The focus of the discharge encounter needs
to be extended beyond mere information to include patient understanding,
motivation and skills for self-management at home.
