“We Didn't Ask to Be Sick:” Equipping Residents and Care Partners for Transitions From Long‐Term Care to Hospital
The study identified critical decisional needs and proposed tools that can address both preparation and decision-making aspects for hospital transitions from LTC. Co-designing these tools with residents and care partners ensures their alignment with user needs, enhancing resident-centered care during critical transitions. The implementation of these tools could significantly improve the transition experience, ensuring continuity of resident-centered care.
