A pilot study testing a new transition of care model from hospital to the community for Hispanic/Latino adults with diabetes to reduce emergency department visits and hospital re-admissions
Implementing a patient-centered and culturally competent TOC model for Hispanic/Latino adults with diabetes discharged from the hospital to the community is feasible when considering key resources for success. These include a bilingual team with dedicated and funded time, alignment with existing discharge process and integration into the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems.
