Improving transitions of care has significant importance to our health care system. While care transitions has been studied and researched by many individuals over the past 20 years, more work is needed to further improve the process. Those beginning to focus on transitions need not begin from scratch, but can use information and research from national and regional collaborative models, as well as other tools and resources to enhance the quality of transitions programs.
