Several factors are considered while creating a patient's care plan. Motivation is a factor in improving communication, and patients often require encouragement to try different approaches involving significant change. It is essential to involve the patient and family in decisions about the plan of care to determine whether the suggested methods are acceptable. Consider meeting critical comfort and safety needs before introducing new communication methods and techniques. Allow adequate time...

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Science
  • Healthcare Communication
  • Patient Safety

Background:

  • The term "handover" is broadly used, leading to ambiguous understanding.
  • Handover is critical for high-quality and safe patient care delivery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To clarify the concept of handover in nursing practice.
  • To define the attributes and process of nursing handover.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized Rodgers's evolutionary approach.
  • Incorporated aspects of dimensional analysis (Caron and Bowers).
  • Analyzed sender and receiver perspectives.

Main Results:

  • Identified four attributes of handover: transfer of information, interaction for disambiguation, process, and strategy.
  • Defined handover as a communication process for transferring responsibility, ensuring continuity and safety.
  • Highlighted "process" as the salient dimension, with sub-dimensions of information transfer, interaction, and strategy.

Conclusions:

  • The refined definition and attributes provide a heuristic for developing handover strategies in nursing.
  • Enhances the understanding and application of handover for improved patient care.
