Summary

Home Nurse Visit post discharge.

Conditions

  • Focus: Hospitalized Patients

Interventions

OTHER

Nurse Home Visit

We will complete a single center, parallel, randomized, standard-of-care-controlled prospective study to determine the efficacy of a nurse home visit program, an intervention adapted from those studied in other populations (i.e., adults, high-risk infants) and re-engineered through Aim 2, in improving pediatric patient transitions from hospital to home

OTHER

Standard of Care

Control patients will be randomized to receive standard-of-care at discharge. This care at our institution includes pediatric hospitalist to PCP (primary care physician) verbal and written communication prior to discharge, written documentation for the family regarding prescribed medication regimen, recommended follow-up with outpatient PCP and relevant consultant(s), and delivery of prescribed medications from the hospital pharmacy to the patient's bedside.
