Improving Coordination and Transitions of Care in Stroke Patients

Improving Coordination and Transitions of Care for Stroke Patients With an Attending Nurse: a Comparative Effectiveness Single Center Study Comparing Models of Nursing Care

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 23 Feb 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study will examine if the attending nurse model will enhance critical patient-centered elements of care that will in turn improve patient education and shared decision-making, medication adherence, stroke-related health literacy, and reduce early readmissions to ultimately yield improved patient quality of life. Our primary objective is to determine whether the attending nurse model of care improves stroke patients' health at 7 days, 30 days, and 90 days after hospital discharge as assessed through questionnaires.
