A discharge planning tool for use with families of high-risk infants.
The transition from hospital care to home care for high risk infants can be facilitated by the process of discharge planning. A tool designed specifically to coordinate discharge counseling and instruction for parents of high-risk infants has been developed and implemented in a perinatal center. Preliminary results indicate that the tool enables the health team to make an objective, rather than subjective, decision in respect to discharge of infants. Use of the tool also standardizes and documents the nurse's role in discharge planning.
