This will enable us to intervene and develop appropriate interventions where necessary. Additionally, we will gain broader insights into predictors that can assist in forecasting the risk of readmission.

Additionally, it aims to strengthen their coordination of complex transitions between hospital departments and municipal care for elderly patients with multiple chronic conditions.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nThe project is led by research leader and professor of clinical nursing Connie Berthelsen, Department of Medicine, Zealand University Hospital K\u00f8ge, and the University of Southern Denmark&#8217;s Institute of Regional Health Research. The project is conducted in collaboration with Postdoc Birgitte Lerb\u00e6k, Aalborg University Hospital, and Associate Professor Cedric Mabire, Lausanne University, Switzerland.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nStudies: The project will be carried out through two studies between March 2024 and October 2026:<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nStudy 1 (March\u2013December 2024): Based on existing knowledge, current practices, and the experience of discharge nurses, a checklist will be developed, covering practical actions crucial to a safe and efficient patient discharge. For example, ensuring contact with relatives and identifying any need for assistive devices. The checklist will be created using knowledge from a regional Delphi survey (a structured collection of expert knowledge from various disciplines and fields). The checklist will serve as a guideline to ensure that the discharge process carried out by nurses is comprehensive and well-structured. As the add-on solution is developed, it will be presented in an easy and accessible format.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nStudy 2 (April 2025\u2013May 2026): The checklist will be implemented in the Department of Medicine at Zealand University Hospital K\u00f8ge and tested by discharge nurses for its practical usefulness. Discharge nurses will be trained in using the checklist (theoretically and practically) to trial and implement it in practice. Observations of the nurses&#8217; practice will be conducted, and due to their expertise, they will also be interviewed.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nIf you are interested in learning more about the Build-a-Care model, please contact Connie Berthelsen at cobe@regionsjaelland.dk .\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-303","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/project-bsec.forskning.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/303","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/project-bsec.forskning.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/project-bsec.forskning.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/project-bsec.forskning.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/project-bsec.forskning.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=303"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"https:\/\/project-bsec.forskning.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/303\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":562,"href":"https:\/\/project-bsec.forskning.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/303\/revisions\/562"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/project-bsec.forskning.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=303"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
