Care Transition Clinical Trial
Official title:
Preventing Medication-Related Problems in Care Transitions to Skilled Nursing Facilities Using a Pharmacy Integrated Transitional Team
The Pharmacy Integrated Transitions (PIT) program, utilizes a crossover randomized control design to evaluate the impact of a clinical pharmacist in decreasing medication related problems during a patient's transition from hospital to skilled nursing facility (SNF).
Standard hospital discharge processes (e.g. as recommended by the Joint Commission Center for Transforming Healthcare), include hospital staff completing a paper-based discharge summary and medication reconciliation form. To reduce the likelihood of medication-related problems during care transitions, the Pharmacy Integrated Transitions (PIT) program aims to improve the standard transition process by adding a coordinating transitional pharmacist to provide a structured synchronous "warm-handoff" between clinical teams at the hospital and the Skilled Nursing Facility, in addition to reconciling, adjusting, and monitoring medications during and after discharge from the hospital. ;
