Course Description
Transitions in care are pivotal moments in an older person’s life, often involving complexities and risks that require careful management. High-quality transitional care is essential for older adults with multiple chronic conditions and complex therapeutic regimens, as well as for providing peace of mind to their families.
Breakdowns in care, caused by poor communication, inadequate handovers, and incomplete documentation, can lead to medication errors, dissatisfaction, and increased hospital readmissions. This Altura Learning module equips you with the skills to effectively prepare for care transitions, identify and address potential risks, and enhance both client and family satisfaction. Through engaging, high-quality video content, you’ll gain the confidence to deliver safer, more coordinated care.
