Transitioning Nurses from Hospital to Home

This article summarizes the development, implementation, and evaluation of a transition to home care course offered by a hospital-based home health agency. The course serves as an opportunity to foster relationships between hospital and home care staff, allows acute care nurses to explore future career alternatives, and provides the opportunity for the home health agency to hire from a group of nurses with previous exposure to home care practice.

Key Words: fee-for-visit staff • hospital-based home care • transition-to-home care
