  • The model was implemented and piloted on a 28-bed rehabilitation ward.
  • The pilot study continued for three months, extending to a 20-bed stroke unit.

    • Main Results:

    • The nursing team successfully developed a novel communication model.
    • The clinic model was tested in a real-world clinical environment.
    • The pilot demonstrated the feasibility of the model in both rehabilitation and stroke units.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed patient, family, and carer clinic model offers a potential solution for improving healthcare communication.
    • The model's adaptability to different units, such as stroke care, highlights its versatility.
    • Further evaluation is warranted to assess the long-term impact on patient outcomes and satisfaction.
