Financial Aspect

Support from the stakeholders is critical in the implementation of evidence-based change proposals. One financial aspect that needs consideration for improving the transition of care (TOC) is reducing the cost of healthcare services. Providing safe, effective, and high-quality care to all patients is a priority in nursing practice. Safe and effective transfer of responsibility for a patient’s medical care relies on effective provider communication with patient comprehension of discharge instructions (Gallahue, et al., 2015).

Through effective nursing communication and collaboration, transition of care will be improved, thereby promoting a positive patient prognosis.
