Improving Hospital-To-Home Transitions for Older Adults with Complex Health and Social Needs in Ontario

Inclusiveness

This evidence brief aims to inform deliberations that could help to improve the quality and experience of hospital-to-home transitions for older adults with complex health and social needs (and their caregivers) in Ontario. In doing so, it mobilizes the best available evidence to identify: 1) the challenges in improving hospital-to-home transitions; 2) three elements of a potentially comprehensive approach to address the problem; and 3) key implementation considerations for these elements.
