Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Management
  • Patient Care
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Transitional care programs aim to provide comprehensive outpatient support following hospitalization.
  • This review focuses on injured adults, examining program structures and outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To define participant characteristics and program structures for transitional care in injured adults.
  • To assess the impact of these programs on readmission rates, healthcare costs, and follow-up adherence.

Main Methods:

  • A scoping review was conducted following PRISMA-ScR guidelines.
  • Searched databases included Medline, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, and Scopus.
  • Included systematic reviews, clinical trials, and observational studies published since 2000 in the US.

Main Results:

  • Nine transitional care programs were identified across 10 studies.
  • Programs were primarily nurse/social-worker-led (60%) or interdisciplinary (40%).
  • Both program types reduced readmissions by 5%, ED visits by 13%, and improved adherence by 75%.

Conclusions:

  • Transitional care programs for injured patients exhibit varied structures.
  • These programs demonstrate potential to decrease overall healthcare utilization.
